    Just try a single press on each of the buttons on the remote in turn (ignore the number and on/off buttons obviously).

    One will be a button which add/removes the current channel status from the screen.
    Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.

    On the remote you need to press the "Input Select" button. It looks like a TV screen with an arrow pointing into it.
    When you press that you will see a menu on the bottom of your screen with selections such as AV Comp PC HDMI etc
    I guess one of the HDMI or AV channels will restore your picture, just try them all until you find the right one.

    I have an older Sony TV (i'm guessing, anyway, it's about 5 years old), but it's a button that has a screen shape with a "i+" in it
    Squirrel!
    If I tell you who I work for, I'm not allowed to help you. If I don't say, then I can help you with questions and fixing products. Regardless, there's still no secret EU law.
