My likkle TV is having issues.

It seems to want to control the volume itself.  scared2:

And no matter how much I am pressing the remote or using the actual volume buttons on the side of the TV it either decides to descend to 0 or increase itself rapidly to an ear blasting 100 !!!!

What to do please ????

What he said ^

and is there a headphone socket and if so does the volume still go zero or 100 through that?  If so you might be able to make life short term tolerable by using a set of small speakers in the headphone socket on 100
Well, whatever, nevermind
