    It does have an AV Output
    That uses a cable with one jack (plugs into AV Output) at one end and then splices off into 3 jacks (two audio and one video) at the other end.

    This started when you switched TVs , correct ?
    Sounds like a TV incompatibility issue. That can happen.
    What kind of TV is it ?
    Maybe something in the TV settings that is stopping the HDMI to mag communication ?
