Other Information 78 Troubleshooting Cannot change black bars. Many broadcasters transmit black bars as part of the video for a program. Only black bars generated by the receiver can be changed. Color looks wrong (dark areas, everything is red, green, or blue, or skin tones are washed out) 4 If the dark areas are bars at the edges of the screen, it is probably due to the aspect ratio setting. (See page 7). 4 Make sure component video cables are connected properly. The component cables (YPbPr) deliver color. The three YPbPr jacks are usually color-coded green, blue, and red. The red, blue and green cables could be mixed. If using these cables, make sure they haven't come loose. 4 Try new YPbPr cables. 4 Reset your receiver by pressing the red reset button. 4 If reset doesn't fix the problem, this is a TV calibration problem. Refer to your TV's User Guide, troubleshooting manual or customer service for help.
