Check to see that all connection cables between the DVD player and television (or Video projector) are plugged firmly into the corresponding sockets Check whether the settings in the OSD menu match the connection option you have used to connect the DVD player to the television (or the video projector).
For this refer to chapter 6 "Connection of the DVD player

Using the television's (or Video projector's) instruction manual check to see if current settings to the television (or Video projector) are necessary in order to use the DVD player with the television.
Make sure that there are no obstructions between the remote control and the DVD player. When using the remote control position yourself not more than five metres from the DVD player.

Composite video Video signal or FBAS signal; this refers to a video signal that contains both colour and brightness information. Progressive scan Normally TV sets and Video projectors with so called "Half images" are controlled. This results in clearly visible line structures. In contrast, progressive scan refers to the supply of full images (with this DVD player at the YPbPr output), progressive scan signals can only be processed by playback devices (primarily large screen televisions, projectors) that offer this feature. The image quality is significantly better than typical video signals. YUV (component video out) YUV refers to the component signal, which is available with this device at the YPbPR output in the form of "half images"; as a rule this is the best signal for the control of large screen televisions and projectors, which can not process Progressive scan signals. As with RGB video signals, the YUV consists of three separate video signals: the brightness signal "Y" and both colour difference signals "Pb/Cb" and "Pr/Cr" Half images (interlacing) / full images (progressive scanning) A standard television image consists of 576 visible lines; first the odd then the even image lines are displayed in alternation. In other words, one half image is shown at a time. In this way, only 30 full images (60 half images) can be displayed per second. This method is referred to as "interlace" format. Contrary to this with the so called progressive or "Progressive scan" format all images are shown every time, that is to say 60 full images per second are displayed. This increases the overall quality of the image; for example paused images and text appear sharper. HDMI HDMI is short for "High Definition Multimedia Interface" and refers to a 19 contact interface for complete digital transmission of audio and video data. With its high bandwidth HDMI handles all known today home electronics digital video and audio formats. HDMI transmits audio data up to frequencys of 192 kHz with text widths of up to 24 Bit on up to 8 channels. Thus not only all of today's image and sound formats introduced into home electronics including HDTV (up to the highest present resolution of 1080i) are transmitted without loss of quality but also future formats with yet higher resolutions.
