Sony HS20 / DVP-S725D (Non-Prog) Component Problem

Lucky enough to just purchase the HS20 from discount electrical and have been trying to get the (non-progressive) component outputs from my Sony S725D to send a signal to the HS20. (Configured for Component out and Video/S-Video in custom menu). I've RTM on the HS20 and in theory, the Film setting in the HS20 should perform 3:2 pulldown on non-progressive sources, but no success.

Has anyone got component to work from their DVD player to the HS20 when it doesn't have PAL/NTSC progressive?

The HS20 is very impressive and DiscountElectrical were great - cheers.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi
last year I had two HS10s that were returned with the lamp light problem. Was using with a Sony 725 component out- outstanding PQ.

725 is non progressive-think the HS10 converted to Prog scan automatically. There might have been a menu setting- but would have been in normal user menu- I didn't have access to any service level menus.
Hope that helps.
I'm very tempted by the HS20 price-should look awesome with my recent Arcam DV27!

Hi rkb & manksman

Good news - I decided to try again and I have managed to get the component out to work. Just a little patience.

Thanks for your replies, it convinced me I was doing something wrong.

Manksman - I almost bought the project a few weeks ago but decided to wait as i'm decorating the lounge.... Just got lucky. It's a great quality projector that's future proof.
