So I just bought a Magnavox NB530MGX Blu-ray player and hooked it up to my Westinghouse 1080p 42″ LCD TV and nothing happened. I brought the cable and unit back to where I purchased it and swapped out the cable since it when we tested the cable it didn’t work in the store, but another cable did. Problem solved! WRONG! I got home hooked it back up and still nothing in the HDMI inputs, none of the 4 HDMI hook ups worked. After doing some research I finally found out that it was not the blu-ray player but in fact it was the Westinghouse 1080p 42″ LCD TV that was having the problem. In order to fix the problem you need to “reset” the TV. To do this follow these steps:

Turn the power off
Press and hold the power button for about 10 minutes seconds
Watch a big “W” appear on the TV
Reconnect the HDMI cable

This should be good news for people that get a blu-ray player, people that want to hook up their Playstation 3 (PS 3), an HD Connection on their xbox 360.
