Sony DVD Upscaler Problem Help!!

Hi,

I am sorry I haven't contributed much to the forum, but I hope someone can help me with my current problem and I thought this would be the best place to post a tech question.

Basically I have a Sony DVP-NS708H which is an upscaler I bought on the basis that it was going to improve the picture of standard DVD's and good reviews I had read.

Now the problem is, when I plug it into the HDMI slot, the TV knows something is there but shows a black screen (when HDMI slot empty screen is blue) every 5 secs I hear a nano second of sound from a playing DVD. The TV is a Goodmans GTVL37W9HD.

I have tried several HDMI leads, and tried playing with some of the settings on the DVD player.

I have tested the Goodmans TV with my computer HDMI output and it works fine?

I have also tried the DVD Player on another TV (Panasonic one) and it worked without problem?

So why will the two not work together can anyone help solve this problem I am pulling my hair out! Seems like an incompatibility error?

Many Thanks

If you've tried them independently, it does seem that you have one of those instances when they just don't get on. You sat tou have treied a pc , have you tried another dvd player?

Hi,

I have tried another DVD upscaler, with the same problem so it must be a problem with the TV?

Can anyone offer assistance?
