I have the an older Toshiba RPTV. I have the TV connected through an RCA satellite receiver (DRD480RE): Coaxial Cable from the wall (no cable box) to the "antenna In" on the satellite receiver; Coaxial cable from the satellite dish to the Satellite receiver "In from Satellite"; Coaxial cable from the satellite receiver "Out to TV" to the "antenna 1" on the TV. I also have an S-video cable connected from the S-video jack on my satellite receiver to the "Cable/sat S-video input on an Yamaha A/V receiver, and left right audio RCA cables to the cable/sat in on my A/V receiver, and an S=video cable from the A/V receiver "Monitor Out" to the S-Video in on the back of the Toshiba TV.
Up until a few days ago, I could watch the satellite channels by turning on the satellite receiver and pressing the TV/Video button on my TV remote 'til it highlighted "Video 1". I could watch my cable channels by turning off the satellite reciver and tuning to the desired cable channel with my TV remote. THEN my wife pressed some button on the satellite +/or the TV remote and now we can no longer tune to our cable channels, no matter what buttons we try. I think I have tried every combination.
I thought perhaps there was a problem with the coax cable in from the cable line, so I ran the coax from the wall cable directly to the TV; could not get a picture. Then I disconnected the cable line from the satellite receiver and from the TV. I connected the cable feed from the wall directly to another TV . The cable line was fine; it worked normally.
Prior to this the TV, the satellite receiver and the A/V receiver worked fine together. Can you advise - What am I missing here? or what mistake am I making? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks
