Picture is bright blue screen.....

I turned on my TV this evening and the screen was just bright aqua blue. Audio is working fine. Receiver is on and is currently recording.

I wasn't sure if it was the lamp....but, i figured since the screen is actually on, it might be something else. 

Please advise. 

Thank you! 🙂

How is the R16 DVR connected to your TV?

Do you have other video sources connected (DVD Player?  VCR?)  Are they working OK?

Its connected via three cables ( Green/Blue/Red) and outlet in the wall. No other video sources connected at this time..... I have tried resetting...but, that isn't working.

Typically the "red, blue & green" RCA cable is used for Component Video connections, but the R16 SD DVR does not have Component Video OUT.  So do you have one of those three cables connected to the R16 Composite Video (yellow RCA) OUT, and the other two cables connected to the Audio OUT (red & white RCA)?
