RDV 1060 quirk

[jpossum]

I have found that the remote button for swithcing between interlace and progressive does some weird things. First time it happened, it flipped between the 2 modes but changed some of the setup menu items.

Last night, something even weirder happened. Was listening to Eagles DVD no problem. Popped it out and put in U2 DVD......no sound!!! Popped back the Eagles DVD...no sound. It wouldn't pick up DTS or PCM.....hmm. Put in a normal CD, beautiful sound!!!

After turning the whole system on and off a couple of times, it still wouldn't produce any sound from any type of DVD. Then I hit the "P SCAN" button on the remote and sound appeared in "interlace" mode. Pressed it again and then got sound in "Progressive" mode. Very weird.

I still can't get into some of the setup menu items. They are greyed out.

Anyone else having these types of problems?

Yeah - I noticed switching between pscan and interlaced throws the 1060 off for as much as a minute when watching DVD's. Obviously there's no reason to switch while watching - I did it out of curiosity. It took the player awhile to recover. I haven't tried it while listening to music.

As far as the unaccessible parts of the Menu I experienced the same thing. the 1060 won't allow access to the PREFERENCES menu unless there is no disc in the unit... Simply stopping playing apparently doesn't cut it. Kinda wierd.

How does your picture look? I have a thread regarding things looking darker and loss of shadow detail. I picked up a nice Component Video cable yesterday so I'm going to reactivate that thread.
