New HDTV / DIRECT TV Setup Question..

dd716ted · 07-02-2005, 03:21 PM

I have just installed a new Toshiba 34HF85 HDTV and connected it to a DTV H-10 Receiver... Both units require seting up.. Should I first setup the Direct TV Receiver using on screen instructions OR.. should I first setup the Toshiba HDTV. Will one setup impact the others setup? This is the first system where I have had this problem... When I setup my Hitachi HD TV / Samsung HD DTV receiver.. everything seemed automatic.. but not this time... Any help would be appreciated.

Shouldn't make a difference which one you start with.

Well if you don't have a signal coming to your TV it will be hard to adjust it properly. I would start with the DTV receiver and get it setup and then go to the TV.
