I was able to bypass my unit for a few hours then the video just went out. I'm using an on off rocker switch and like i said it was working for a little while. now i dont even get the warning screen it just get sound and nothing else. I checked all my connections and everything seems right. anyone have any ideas? thanks for you help. it just seems odd to me that I dont even get the warning screen.

I figured it out!!

when i was playing with the settings I hit the background button. this puts the background over the video image. I was looking at it like a wire or internal problem. it was just a setting.
