hi, my mom just got a dvd player for christmas, and im trying to hook it up. its a sony 350p dvd/vcr combo. i hooked up the compenent cables to the tv. i go into the the menus, and hit progressive scan, and it goes all scrambled, in blue. then i switch my video to the last input and hit progressive scan, and its fuzzy and its green.
in the dvd manual it says, 480i progressive scan. in the tv book, it sais 480p only... what does that mean? plz help. im useing s-video right now untill i get this sorted.
It depends on the TV. Some TV's while having component inputs won't accept a progressive scan signal. In that case you can still run a 480i signal to the TV over component cables. You should be able to see a marked improvement over s-video or composite feeds.
