epson emp-tw600 help

DisguisedCoot · 08-07-2006, 9:53 AM

I have finally got around to connecting my dvd player upto epson tw600 via HDMI, the only problem is that i can only use the standard dvd res, when i upscale to 720 wich the pj does support all i get is a "signal not suppotred" message, is there something i should be doing in the dvd player to get this to work? or is it the pj? works fine over compoent cable

Hi lilesgary

Have you resolved the upscaled hdmi problem yet? If so, how did you get it to work?

Hi

What did epson have to say? Have you tried another upscaled dvd player?
Sorry your having so much grief, it must be really racking you off!

no not yet, works ok via compoenet. going to try another HDMI cable.
Do you have one of these PJ's?

I have an Imac upscaling my dvds and connected to my TW600 via HDMI and that seems to work fine. Under INFO it comes up at 1080 60hz. Also connect my xbox via component and that runs fine at 720p and 1080i. Not really anything to suggest, but can confirm that the projector will take the signal ok. As you say maybe try another HDMI lead (although being a digital signal i should think it either works or it doesn't). I would suggest its the player not throwing the right signal.

my dvd player is samsung HD850, that has been hacked to upscale via component, that too works ok its jus the HDMI thats the problem. anyway how do you like the Epson? iv had mine for about 6weeks now and still get blown away buy the picture

I've had mine about 6 months now (2nd one actually... long story... if you search the topic you'll see). Picture quality is superb, still amazes me whenever I watch things like Star Wars ROTS or fifth element. Even better since I've used the Imac to upscale. Flesh tones etc are great. Can't wait to get a HDDVD player now. Only slight niggle is that I have a green dust blob which is starting to get on my nerves, but I'll get that sorted when I get 5 minutes. Anyway, glad you're enjoying it. Seems a very underated PJ to me.

finally sorted out my HDMI problem, it was the cable! Bought a new 10m one from my local store and all works great now.
