Trying to set up an OTA antenna with hdmi connections on my android TV. I get two identical separate signals, both all squashed up into the top of the screen, with the rest of the screen green.

Anybody got a suggestion? I guess it has something to do with resolution but I can’t find anywhere to change the resolution on the tv

It’s there (if the TV is relatively new.). Where it would be in the menu is dependent on your TV model.

I would do a search on “Change Resolution Settings for Brand Model”. That will probably bring up your user manual. You might even find a You Tube video.

Are you using a digital TV antenna?

Youtube. As much as I dislike the people that run youtube it is the goto for howtos.

Absolutely nothing to do with an antenna, as long as it is not noise.

Sounds like a processing error in whatever box you are using to view it.

I gave up on using antenna. They worked for a few junk local stations but the picture quality was poor. I had to keep shifting the antenna position.

Using Roku now, and it is much better, and equally cheap. Lots of free stuff, and get all main channels albeit with delayed streaming, but quality of picture is as good as cable service providers. Roku requires having wifi at home. Setup is fairly easy. Best of all no more TV bills from Xfinity.
