I Have Connected An External Device With The Composite Video Connection

Question:

 

My TV shows an error when connected to my DVD player via composite analog input. How can I fix this issue?

 

Answer:

Ensure that the resolution of your DVD player is set to 480i when connecting through the composite analog input on the TV. Consult your DVD player owner's manual for instructions on how to adjust its settings. Note that accidentally pressing the P.Scan button on some DVD players may cause this error.

 

Terms: Composite (a type of video connection), analog input (a way for devices to receive signals), 480i (a standard definition resolution).

 

Note: Many DVD players feature a P.Scan button that, when pressed inadvertently, can lead to this error.
