Do LCD TV's take long to power up. I have a SYLVANIA LC320SL8 32''?

Question

I have to press the power button twice. The first time it blinks green for a while then turns red. I press it again then it powers on. Is this normal for LCD tv's

Answer 1

Digital TVs in power saving mode may take up to 15-20 sec until you see video.

This is because all TVs have now microcontrollers that need to boot.

If you want faster start-up , go to the menu and select, if possible, a fast boot mode.

You should definitely not have to press the power button twice though, no matter which power up mode you use.

Answer 2

It may take a couple of seconds so it is a little longer than a regular tv
