G'day,
I'm having problems with the component input/output of my RSP-1068.
I finally bought a TV that has component input. I connected my set-top box to the TV via component, and got a great image without any problems after one hour of use. Next I connected the DVD player to the TV via component, and also got a great image without any problems.
However, when I connect the set-top box via component to the 1068, then the 1068 to the TV via component, the signal keeps dropping. If the TV does not get a signal, it shows a blue background, and once the signal is found again, the name of the input ("DVD", in this case) is shown on the screen for half a second. When the set-top box is connected to the TV via the 1068's component input/outputs, the image keeps flashing blue with "DVD" displayed. This can happen once very minute, or sometimes many times a second. I think it may be related to the kind of image that is on display (lots of white), rather than random, but I can't be sure.
When I connect the DVD player to the TV via the 1068's component inputs, the problem is not as severe. Some DVDs can play without problem, but others produce the same signal dropout as per the set-top box. One particular example is "The Incredibles". The opening credits and the beginning of Chapter 17 show this problem. The dropout does not seem to be random here, as it always appears at the start of Chapter 17, and not in the previous chapter. Howver, when I connect the DVD player directly to the TV via component, I get no problems with viewing chapter 17 at all.
I've tried multiple permutations of different cables, using different component inputs, using the set-top box or DVD seperately or together, etc. I had disconnected everything from the 1068 except for the video cables, to rule out any other interference. But still the signal from the 1068's component output seems to drop every so often.
So...has anyone else seen this problem, or know what the problem is?
