    An RDV-1050E progresssive problem

    I have had my RDV-1050E for many years now and as my old TV only allowed me to use RGB-SCART I have done so.

    I recently purchased an HDTV and connected the Rotel via component cables. It works with interlaced but not with progressive. I followed the manual's settings for selecting progressive output. The progressive LED indicator light comes on and the TV shows the signal is indeed 575P or 480P depending on whether I set PAL or NTSC. Picture, however is black, but intermittently the film appears for an fraction of a second.

    I know the TV and cabels are OK as I tested both 480P and 575P using the same cabels and TV input with an older DVD-player. The Rotel is working as it should when I select interlaced. I am leaning towards the fact that my unit may be defective, but ask anyway as I might have overlooked something.

    It may be a bit late now as it is an old model, but is there a firmware upgrade that may help me or is service the only option? It may also be a defect right from the start as it is the first time I tested the component connectors.

    Another question:
    What is the difference between "Film" and "Video" in the Choice settings?

    Thanks for your time!

    I have been trying to push the DVD-Video format to its limit as far as video quality is concerned. Many people know that DVD-Video supports progressive scan video from film - called 480P(24). However DVD also supports progressive scan video at a higher frame rate - called 480P(30).

    RSP 1098 and progressive scan dvd/dvd audio players
    by Henk
    The RSP 1098 TFT screen displays no video unless a usable signal is passed through the composite video connection. However, as pointed out in the RSP 1098 manual not all dvd players, set in progressive mode, output a usable composite video signal. This is true also for dvd players that play dvd audio....
