I have just purchased a Philips DVP 5980 dvd player and QED Qunex P-CV1 component cables.When connected to my Philips 30PF9975/12 LCD all I get is a blank blue screen. The player works fine with a scart cable - just audio using component! Ideas anyone??

- Tried your solutions but to no avail, all I get is 'picture format not available' flashing on and off. "Thanks for trying guys - any more ideas?" he asks hopefully.

Assuming you have connected the DVD to the component (red / green / blue phono) connectors at the back of the set, and the TV is set to EXT5 then the problem is a setting on the DVP5980.

Check the Upscaling setting on the DVP5980 by pressing the HD UPSCALE button on the unit. Cycle through the options until you get a picture. The 30PF9975/12 is not fully HD compatible, so may only support the lower resolutions. (If any)

If this does not work, connect the DVP5980 with the scart and power on the without a disc in the tray.

Press Setup on the remote.

Press the right arrow button twice to get to the VideoSetup Page.

Move down to the Component setting an change from RGB to INTERLACE.

Disconnect the scart and connect the component lead. Select EXT 5 on the TV.

If the picture appears correctly, go back to the Video Setup Page and change the progressive option to On.
