Recently, I tried to hook up a component cable to my DVD player (Samsung). The audio was fine but the picture was all RED. Can anyone tell me why this is happenning?

I just found the answer to my problem at the Samsung website. I'll post the answer below for anyone who want's to know. It was a setting in the DVD player I had to change from S-Video to either I-Scan or P-Scan.


When connecting your DVD player to your TV via the Component jacks, the Video Output in the Setup Menu must be set to Component (Iscan or Pscan). The screen will be RED if Video Out is set incorrectly to S-Video.

1. With the unit in Stop mode, press the MENU button.
2. Use the Up and Down Arrows to select Setup, then press the ENTER button.
3. Use the Up and Down Arrows to select Display Setup and press the ENTER button.
4. Use the Up and Down Arrows to select Video Output and press the ENTER button.
5. Use the Right Arrow Button to select Component P Scan or Component I Scan and press ENTER button.
