How to stop my TV screen from running, non-stop, horizontaly?
My Samsung TV model is not listed on the selection, Therefore I chose another model.
I have a SAMSUNG 42"Plasma (PDP) Television.-- Model: PS42S4S2
How to stop the screen from running horizontally?
The old TVs had a specific button for fixing this, but this TV do not seem to have one and the User guide-menu does not list anything about this problem either.
Appreciate any help with this problem and enclosing 2 videos for reference:
1) One showing the problem (horizontal running of screen) is using the satellite/aerial cable antenna provided at my apartment.
2)The other shows the screen normal and stable. This is having the TV connected to a Digital Receiver box.
Is this a good question?
@hkgmmm what exact model is your TV. Post a short video with your question by using this guide Adding images to an existing question That way we can see what you see.

Are the digital box and the satellite/aerial connected the same way on your TV? Do they both use HDMI or are they different input connections?

Hi @hkgmmm
has it worked OK before?
Is the digital receiver a cable TV satellite receiver box or a terrestrial TV receiver box?
Here is a link to the closest manual that I can find.
Perhaps the channels need to be re-scanned by the TV and the correct country selected or if the signals are perhaps a cable TV signal received via satellite then the manual method of selecting the channels may have to be selected (see p.19)
This is assuming that the satellite/ aerial cable is connected to the co-ax input of the TV

Many thanks for your concern, suggestions and User Guide. Actually I still keep the original manuals. Will try doing the manual channel scanning suggestion in a day or two and get back to you, I had done it before 2X but in Auto Scan. Meantime some quick replies to your questions:
1) I bought this TV in 2005 and did the connection myself, following the 2 respective manuals. Everything worked fine until now with the said present problem.
2) cable connecting to TV with Digital Receiver Box is CO-AX and not an HDMI multi pin.
3) The estate provides antenna for only local TV service through a satellite dish. I do not have cable TV,
4) Yes, the satellite/aerial cable is connected to the INPUT of the Digital Receiver Box and in turn its OUTPUT to the TV.
Will get back to you with results in a couple of days, after I run again the connections and set-up.
