I am seeing a pink hue over entire picture when viewing directv - i have a pioneer elite ro6u media receiver
the hdmi cord from dvr to ro6u unit seems loose - changed cord - same result- anyone have any ideas why - do you think it could be the female on he back of the ro6u unit - hmdi to dvd works fine and tv looks great - any ideas how to proceed?

Hi Miranda,
First thing might be to make sure there isn't any lint of other crud in any of the HDMI ports.
If you change inputs on the TV (not likely by your description) to get from DVD to DVR then the next thing to check would be the TV settings but is sounds as though there is one output from the Pioneer to the TV so therefore no input change.
If the problem still persists the following would be one way to find what is likely causing it:
Try taking the HDMI out of the DVR straight to the TV (if possible) if the color tone is still there then the problem lies with the DVR.
If the color goes away try taking the DVR out to the DVD input (which is working fine with your DVD output) and check again. If the color is gone then you have isolated the problem to the Pioneer as you suspect. |

jim,
i took a flashlight and examined the female end of the hdmi connection and noticed a prong bent - so i used a little screw driver to re-align the prong and re-connected the cable - the fit was much tighter that before - all appears well - thank you - as usual for your assistance and expertise
Have a wonderful weekend!
