Tv problems

[melodylogan45]

I have tv problems a lot, the picture on my screen is distorted. Anyone else have this issue.

It looks like a bunch of squares.

I get that on and off a lot.  It started in October when the cable company went all digital.  No matter how many times I have a cable technician come out here it never stays fixed.  I'm about ready to give up cable.  It's so expensive and half the time I can't watch a whole movie clearly.

I have had that happen, but when I reset the cable set-top box it fixes it. I unplug the box, wait 10 seconds and plug it back in. This is for Comcast Xfinity

No not that problem but my smart tv has started acting stupid but I don't think it is a tv issue but rather likely like yours a problem with my cable company.  At least once per night I get a low bandwitth error which shouldn't be and I have to either call the internet company and get my wifi mode reset or I have to turn off the tv for a few and then try turning it back on which I have found works just as well and takes much less time. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr right in middle of my show

If you have a cable box, make sure you have the most upgraded box... with comcast/spectrum/time warner I get those box pixelations when the box is outdated.  It happens every couple years or so that we need to take in & switch out the boxes.

A couple years back mine did that all the time, Im with Charter, finally they fixed it, by giving me all new cables

No's that that problem, but on one of our TV's, we get a perfect picture but no  sound except on certain channels; not sure what's that about or how to fix it

Our oldest son gave us a nice big screen TV. He said it might not work.

It worked for us a few months and yesterday it konked out. Can't complain but it's a little disappointing.

I don't have that problem.

     Make sure all the cables are properly pushed in all the way.       
     No loose cables will improve your chances of a good TV reception.

To the OP: I am sorry to hear of your TV problems. Have you tried unplugging your cable or satellite box (if you have one), waiting for 10 - 15 seconds, and re-plugging it? If that does not work, you may have to contact your cable or satellite provider.

NOpe, never had that problem. Hopefully your issue is resolved by now!

Nope I have never had that problem, my screen has frozen a few times, but my issue was with the cable.  I am working on cutting that off in the next few days, with the help of a great antenna, netflix and amazon firestick I will be saving a bunch of $$.   Looking forward to it.

I don't get that because I don't have cable. I just have regular over-the-air service with a digital antennae, which just gives you a whole other set of problems, like that it's almost impossible to watch TV when it is raining out for most channels.
