    Switch was on.

Memorex MVD2042 - The only switch on the back of the unit had gotten bumped when something fell behind the unit, thus causing the same issue mentioned here. Looking at the front of the unit, the switch is straight back from the disc tray on the left. (of course, if you're looking at the back, it's on the right side) This switch is for "Progressive Scan" either "on" or "off" Thanks, Wizard_Yo

Hi I don't know if this will help, but it is one of the most common faults I see when a DVD player is brought in. The problem is that your DVD player is set for progressive scan output, and your tv is not capable of that input. I am not familiar with your model specifically, but there should be a F.A.Q. section in your manual and a procedure to to take it out of progressive scan mode. If that is what you found, and you followed the procedure, then there must be a glitch in the built-in program. If it is not a very old model, the place you purchased it, may be able to show you how to get it out of pscan mode, and probably not charge you. Good Luck!

TO FIX SPLIT SCREEN PROBLEM:

Use the Coby remote control.

The third button down on the right (labelled "video/ pscan") located directly above the number 4 button should be pushed.

Push that button to toggle from split screen to standard single screen.

If you dont have a pscan button on the back hit the PROG button on the remote. Then find the video type tab switch it off of pscan and then hit the SETUP button on the remote. Worked for me. Finally after 2 months I figured it out just by hitting buttons. Hope this helps. I have the basci 30 dollar memorex dvd player.

    Hi.

    Check at the back of the unit, there should be a switch to set the P-Scan on and off. Please turn it off and restart the unit. That should fix the problem.

On your remote, there may be a button P-Scan, which you may have inadvertently pressed. So turn on the dvd, and press the button, it goes to normal mode.......just wonderful! I just realized this button was there........lol! Thanks everyone for trying to help.

My OTIC DVD does not have a Pscan button on the back, and holding the Stop key for five seconds didn't work either, but pressing the V Mode button did work. Now it's perfect. It was also playing in black and white, and hitting the PAL button fixed that. So, one happy camper here
