I'm an idiot

I changed the tv mode from auto to 720 and now all I see is snow. Hard resets don't work so exactly how do I get the tv mode set again? Tried TV mode +0, TV mode +1 and it didn't work. Just couldn't leave well enough alone.
And, searching the PH forum is much more work than it should be. Is there such a thing as too much info?

avsforum.com is too much information, the NMT forum is too much repetition.

It is TVMode (release key) 0 and then power off/on if it doesn't work.

For whatever reason mine did something similar and I couldn't get anything on-screen, despite trying other TV modes, reset, etc.

On a last ditch effort I read about hooking up the composite output to reset the device. Sure enough, worked perfect. Hooked up the composite output, then through the setup config was able to reset my video mode. It was set appropriately mind you, 1080i hdmi/component, but I changed to to composite and back to hdmi and then it worked fine.

I think I read you can tweak it from an external browser as well if you lose it from your TV.

That worked though I had to do it about 5 times before it did. I had already done it but I guess I was either too quick or too slow between pressing 1 key and then the other.
Why do I feel like I'm doing brain surgery every time I go into things with the PH. I guess it's a Linux thing but I really feel out of my element doing anything but the simplest of things. I'm just trying to get all the goodness from this unit without killing it.
Thanks Martin.
