Audio problems

If you can't hear any sound, make sure that the sound is not muted. Also make sure that the volume is turned up. Check the audio wires in the back of the console. Make sure that the wires are plugged in securely, and that they are plugged in the correct ports. If all your audio connections are secure and you are still having sound problems, turn on the TV and press the "More" button on your remote control. Select "Options." From here, you can adjust audio settings. This is especially useful if you are having an issue with the audio balance of your speakers, or if specific speakers are not working properly.

If this does not help, press the "TV Input" button on your remote. This will cycle through the available television input modes. You may have simply been using the wrong input mode. If the resolution of your video is off, press the "More" button on your remote, and then select "Options." Go to the "Video Output" option and change the TV resolution that you want.
