Why is there no sound on my Samsung Monitor TV, but the picture is fine?

  Set the Speaker Select option to TV Speaker in the Sound menu. If you are using an external device, check the device’s audio output option. If you are using a DVI to HDMI cable, a separate audio cable is required. If your TV has a headphone jack, make sure there is nothing plugged into it. Try rebooting the connected device by disconnecting, and then reconnecting the device’s power cable.

  Check cable connections. Make sure a video cable is not connected to an audio input. A low signal level may cause sound distortion, so for antenna or Cable connections, check the signal information. You can also perform the Sound Test as explained.

Why does my Samsung SyncMaster 9 Monitor TV image not look as good as it did in the store?

  The store displays are all tuned to digital, HD (high definition) channels. If you have an analog cable/set top box, upgrade to a digital set top box. Also, use HDMI or Component cables to deliver HD (high definition) picture quality. Cable/Satellite subscribers can try HD channels from the channel line up. If you have an Air/Cable Antenna connection, try HD channels after performing Auto program. You can also adjust the Cable/Sat box video output resolution to 1080i or 720p.

What to do if my Samsung SyncMaster 9 Monitor picture is distorted with macro block errors, small blocks, dots, or pixelization?

  Picture distortion, especially in fast-moving scenes, can be caused by video content compression. Weak signal levels or poor signal quality can also distort the picture. Additionally, mobile phones used close to the TV (within 3.3 ft) may cause noise in the picture on analog and digital channels.

  Ensure the Sleep Timer is set to Off in the System menu. If your PC is connected to the TV, check your PC power settings. Also make sure the AC power cord is plugged in securely to the wall outlet and the TV. When watching TV from an antenna or cable connection, the TV will turn off after 10 - 15 minutes if there is no signal.

  Remove the left and right audio connections from the set-top-box. If the buzzing stops, this indicates that the set-top-box has a grounding issue. You can also replace the Component video cables with an HDMI connection.
