Solved! Sound bar cause poor video

[wpym]

I stream my tv using Direct Tv Now, and a Roku stick. All was great for the first 4 months than my excellent picture became dull and fuzzy. Especially during football games. I unplugged the sound bar and now all is well. How can I get my sound bar to work again. I did try toggling it on and off.

I want to suspect (1) magnetic or (2) electrical. I would...

(1) move SB away from TV, without disconnecting anything, see what happens.

(2) use a extension cord, plug SB into another outlet on a separate circuit (breaker) than the TV.

Thank you, I guess what I’m saying is that I haven’t changed anything, all was well. The sound bar is 9 yr old. With it on the picture fuzzy, turn it off and it’s fine. Maybe time for new sound bar?

Maybe.

Electronics don't last as long as they used to.

I would try the soundbar on another TV. Maybe the TV is the issue. Does the TV have an alternative way for you to connect the soundbar to it?
