    Hi All,

    Got myself a 42x3030d Toshiba and only have my old DVD player.
    It is progresive scan able but for some reason it will not allow me to select the Scan change mode in the menu.

    Seeing as what i am doing is incorrect, could someone please give a foolproof idiots guide.

    and i mean idiots guide. starting from what bloody cable to use (AV, SCART, Component??). Using Component at the moment


    *Edit*
    P.S. This model has no online presence on the LG site anymore. So I can not just download the Manual (which is gone to the place where all important documents find themselves, ie not where they are supposed to be!)

    LG: LH-t175 is that your DVD player as there is no mention at all in Google.

    As for progressive scan component is the connection to use, the TV definitely supports it so it may be something up with the DVD player itself. There might be something in the TV's menu settings stopping it from working but I'm not familiar with all the options in the Toshiba so can't really help you there. Try turning off or on Cinema mode for the component input.

    Are your cables definetly ok? You're using component over 3 phono cables? Have you got them matched up correctly? R, G and B? If the Green isnt working then you have no sync = no picture. If you swap them around you might get sync (picture) but missing blue or red which will indicate a dodgy phono cable.

    Maybe the Progressive Scan works over SCART. Is your SCART connection component enabled or just composite? You'll know if the SCART connection is component if it is labeled RGB on BOTH TV and DVD.

    Whats the model number of the DVD player?

    I must have posted the wrong model number.
    I'll repost when i get home later

    I have not had a chance to play around with it yet.

    I will try to reset the DVD player tonight and see how that pans out

    Brand new cable out of the bag.
    I'll try to run the Wii through component later also to see if it is a TV setting.
