I have a problem that I can't figure out and google hasn't yet answered for me.
About a month ago our gameroom TV went out. We don't need anything fancy up there so I got a Vizio and everything is fine. . . when the living room TV is not on.
We have a Panasonic plasma in the living room. The living room and gameroom are fairly open to each other but there is no direct line of sight. The two TV's are about 30' apart. When the Panasonic is on, the Vizio will usually not turn on and if it does turn on the remote will not work. If the Panasonic is off, everything (including the remote) on the Vizio works fine. If the Vizio is on and the Panasonic is then turned on the Vizio remote will stop working.
I could understand if just the remote stopped working, but it is more than that. If the Panasonic is on even the power button on the Vizio TV (the only physical button on the TV) will not turn the TV off. I usually have to unplug the TV. I have also tried a Harmony remote and it reacts the exact same way as the Vizio remote.
Any ideas Nerdery?
