Re: wii and my new samsung lcd tv

If you are using the supplied Wii cable then throw it away and get a Component cable for better quality but in the meantime you should see it on one of your Scart sockets which maybe AV3,4,5 etc see your TV instructions.

Play.com (UK) : Official Nintendo Wii Component Video Cable : Nintendo Wii - Free Delivery

Set the Wii to 16:9 and I think they call it HDTV out.

Re: wii and my new samsung lcd tv

There should be an AV channel button probably called the source button on your remote. If you press that you can cycle through the various AV channels on your TV and find the one which is being used by the composite cable from the Wii.

However as already suggested you should really invest in the official component cable as it will give you a much better picture.
