HD TV - Comcast - Samsung TV - "Component 3 not supported mode"




By willardlang on Jul 02, 2009

" "
I purchased a TV from a local here in Jacksonville. It worked fine on his previous HD Box. It is a different model than what I have now.
The screen states: "Component 3 - Not Supported Mode"

Some CSRs can fix and others can't.

Any ideas?

Hello willardlang,

This is because of the type of Component Video being used. Let me explain We got so use to the term RGB to explain component video we for got that there are two standards for component video and they are not compatible. These two standards are Component Analog Video (Y, R-Y, B-Y) and Component Digital Video (Y/Pb/Pr) or (Y/Cb/Cr)

Now, the problem is they never told us the public which one to use and when, they only told us RGB. Now to complicate things, you have have to figure out which one to use. So here is a helpful yet flawed hint:
If the TV was made after 2003 use Component Digital Video (Y/Pb/Pr) or (Y/Cb/Cr)
If the TV was made before 2003 use Component Analog Video (Y, R-Y, B-Y)

Yes this is flawed but for the most part it's good.

I hope this helps,

Thank you,

Shuttle83
