Re: Roku tv is dark when on satellite but works fine on any apps like Netflix or prime

Hi @Lollylmh

Thank you for the post!

If your Roku TV is dark when on satellite but works fine on apps like Netflix or Prime Video, here are a few things you can try:

  • Check your TV settings: Make sure that your TV settings are properly configured for satellite TV. You may need to adjust the brightness, contrast, or other settings for satellite TV viewing. You can usually access these settings by pressing the "Settings" button on your TV remote.
  • Check your satellite TV settings: Check the settings on your satellite TV receiver or cable box to make sure that they are properly configured. You may need to adjust the output resolution or other settings to optimize your TV picture quality.
  • Check your cables: Make sure that your cables are properly connected and not damaged. Check that the HDMI cable from your satellite TV receiver or cable box is securely connected to the HDMI port on your Roku TV.
  • Try a different HDMI port: If you have multiple HDMI ports on your Roku TV, try connecting your satellite TV receiver or cable box to a different HDMI port. Sometimes, certain HDMI ports may have issues that affect picture quality.
  • Restart your Roku TV: Sometimes, simply restarting your Roku TV can help resolve issues with picture quality. To restart your TV, go to the Roku home screen, select "Settings," then select "System," and then select "System restart."

If none of these steps work, it's possible that there may be an issue with your satellite TV receiver or cable box. In this case, you may need to contact your satellite TV provider for further assistance.

We hope it helps!


Warm regards,
Lianna
