Video out to display pictures on the television on my XSI not working!!!!!! :(

I connected my XSI to my tv with the video cord and it doesn't display anything on the television. The LCD screen on my camera goes black and I hit the play button but then no pictures are displayed...the televisions shows "no signal".

I bought my camera from amazon back in july I believe. It is very sad
Is this covered by the warranty?

And yes.... it is set to NTSC

Did you try another cable?

You connected it to the AV input didn't you, and not to the TV aerial ...?

I doubt it's the camera, you probably need to cycle through the tv's output choice (like there's AV1, AV2, HDMI1, HDMI2 etc..)

I believe I have but I will make sure of it again tonight

Okay I made sure I was doing just as the instruction said so and it's still not working...

can someone run a step by step of how theirs work? especially details such as....the lcd turns off at this point...

1)Plug cable into camera's 1/8" mini-jack.
2)Plug other end of cable into the Aux video input (RCA/phono) on the front of my TV.
3)Turn on TV.
4)Turn on camera.
5) On TV, press Channel button until I get Aux #2.
6)Enjoy photos on TV

Describe the cable(s) you are using! There are many that will fit into a 1/8 " jack but not all will carry video to the right RCA/phono.

The cable i am using is the one that came in the box.

1 black end that plugs into the camera. and one yellow end that plugs into the TV.

I plug the black end into my camera. I go to to television ...

VIDEO 1
YELLOW WHITE RED

I plug the other end to the yellow input of the television.

I change the input on the television to VIDEO 1.

I turn on my camera. (LCD IS BLACK)

Hit the playback button.

Nothing happens. TV displays no signal.
