If your JVC TV has a black screen, try to understand whether it is in the ON state. Your JVC TV is having a black screen with no image can be due to the connectivity issue with your JVC TV, it can be an issue with the HDMI connectivity or the wrong HDMI input.

Here are the troubleshooting ways which you can implement on your JVC TV to fix its Black Screen Issue:

  • First, you need to check whether your JVC TV is in the ON state or not. If it is, then press the INPUT button on your TV remote and change the input source. If your JVC TV is still in the ON state, then unplug the power cord of your TV from the AC outlet and plug it back in after a few minutes.
  • Second, you need to check the HDMI connectivity. If you are using an HDMI cable to connect your JVC TV with an external device, then make sure that the HDMI cable is properly connected to the HDMI port of your TV. Also, check if the HDMI cable is damaged or not.
  • Third, you need to check if you are using the right HDMI input. If you are not using the right HDMI input, then your JVC TV will not display the image.

If none of these troubleshooting steps work, then you should contact the customer support of JVC TV and get further assistance.

JVC TV Cannot Play 4k Resolution

If your JVC TV shows that it cannot play at 4k Resolution, then the issue can be on the streaming media content not in 4k or your JVC TV does not support 4k.

Here are the ways you can fix your JVC TV being unable to play videos at 4k Resolution:

1. Check if the streaming media content is in 4k

The first step is to check if the streaming media content you’re trying to watch is actually in 4k Resolution. To do this, you’ll need to look for the 4k logo on the content provider’s website or app.

If the content is in 4k, but your JVC TV still can’t play it, then it’s likely that your JVC TV doesn’t support 4k Resolution.

2. Check if your JVC TV supports 4k Resolution

If you’re not sure if your JVC TV supports 4k Resolution, then you can check the TV’s manual or specifications.

Some JVC TV models that support 4k Resolution include the JVC LT-49C790, JVC LT-55C860, and JVC LT-65C890.

If your JVC TV doesn’t support 4k Resolution, then you won’t be able to watch 4k content on it. However, you can still watch content in lower resolutions, such as 1080p.
