Q: QuestionThe mother board on my LG flat screen bought in 2010 has broken. We can watch antennae TV, but not our DVD or VCR players on the TV. We bought this product, installed & checked instructions three times. We have added channel 4.0, but cannot play DVD.

Asked 7 years ago by OldSkool.

• A:Answer It should actually work perfectly for your application so either you’re not hooking it up right or actually getting your TV to tune channel 4 or you have a defective unit

Q: QuestionI cannot access the antenna jack behind my wall mounted TV but I can access the audio/video outlets. Can I use the RF modulator to connect to the TV and then the external antenna cable to the coax connection of the modulator to get free to air channels?

Asked 8 years ago by Joyce.

• A:Answer I don't think so. This has RCA and coax inputs but only a coax output. They're not reversible to my knowledge.

Q: QuestionCan someone make my smart tv pickup hd channels, 2,4,5,7,9,11,13 so that they remain in memory? I have bought at least 3 different antennas and all it picked up 4 channels. I have internet and no cable or antenna. This senior needs help!!!

Asked 8 years ago by Johann.

• A:Answer Hi, thanks a lot for posting you question. We'd like to explain that indoor antenna reception is all about location, as the reception in your area depends on many factors such as geography, topography and the strength as well as proximity to a channel's broadcasting signal. Some tips to increase the antenna's signal is the height at which the antenna is placed; a higher place normally gets a wider signal. In addition to this, most antennas are directional (these are also called "unidirectional" antennas), which means they need to be oriented toward a broadcast tower. To get additional tips, please don't hesitate on contacting our support team at https://www.insigniaproducts.com/contact-us and we will be mor than happy to assist you.

Q: QuestionCan I use this to connect an Atari flashback 7 to my proscan flat screen tv?

Asked 8 years ago by Nannie.

• A:Answer Hi Nannie, Thank you very much for your interest in our RF Modulator. Regarding your inquiries about the connection to your Atari I wanted to let you know that ​this modulator will work if you only have a standard coax cable on your TV. I strongly suggest that you plug this in with the AV outputs on the Atari, if possible. We want you to fully enjoy this and other Insignia products. Arely R. - Insignia Support.

Asked 8 years ago by PhilD.

• A:Answer Hello! This will most likely not work for a cable system. You would need to contact your cable provider to know the possibilities of using this device on your specific location. However, most cable systems require a box directly from them. Regards, Daniel T. - Insignia Support

Q: QuestionI have connected an Insignia converter box and antenna to an older model TV using a balun adapter. There is now a buzz when text appears on screen. Can the modulator be used to attach external speakers from the converter box to the TV to eliminate this?

Asked 8 years ago by Renovator.

• A:Answer It sounds like you need a filter to help eliminate the feedback. If the text is coming from having the closed caption turned on, you might try turning that off unless it is greatly needed. Otherwise, I would contact a local Audio/Video technicians for advice or repair.

Q: QuestionI have an older DVD Recorder that receives on the old analog channels. If I connect this to a ROKU box with the Red White Yellow RCA Cable, will I be able to record Netflix? The recorder will not record Netflix attached directly to the Roku.

Asked 8 years ago by Rad.

• A:Answer Unfortunately, the answer is NO! When attempting to record Netflix from Roku, you will see a blue and red box telling you that the recording cannot be done, even when using this modulater between the Roku and the recorder. Also includied in the message is "Error 24" I have not been able to determine what that means but suspect it means something like "You are trying to record Netflix and we don't like that so we have placed software in the stream to stop you from doing so." . Netflix can be recorded using other methods, but Roku is not a method that seems to work with Netflix recordings. Many channels on Roku, however, can be recorded in this way and you are free to try to do so.
