I cant get my dvd to run without the pscan split screen coming help.... follwed directions in manual it didnt work HELP memorex dvd player model#mvd2022
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

I just had the same problem and I looked in the back of my Memorex dvd player and there was actually a button where you can turn the progressive scan on or off.

On the back of the dvd player there is a switch to cut the progressive scan on and off. it should be off and u should be set to go. i referred over to this and discovered it back there. Hopefully this should help you. Good Luck!:)

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!

Thanx. Called the Source and they didn't know but flipping progressive scan switch on back... perfect.

I tried all buttons and I got on a "reset" button, It works perfectly now.

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.

Sometimes the P-Scan button is on the DVD-player remote.

I just had this with my AWA VHS/DVD there were no buttons on the front or back. Finally found Instructions booklet and it said to press the SYSTEM BUTTON on the remote. Yeah it's fixed.

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.

Thank you! I knew that "PSCAN" triangle was trying to tell me something - BUT WHAT? Now I have a different problem - the setup button on the remote won't work. It worked a minute ago. Is this a low tech problem like - low batteries?
Posted on Sep 20, 2008
My remote had the I/P button which turned the progressive scan on/off. This worked. Although I am trying to figure out how it was turned on in the first place. My PSCAN Message showed up when I was trying to FFWD.
Posted on Sep 14, 2008
Yes switching from progressive scan to reg mode did take off the pscan logo and split screen it the switch on the back of the unit.ps hopes this helps:)

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
Posted on Mar 08, 2007
Thanks the button on the back worked!!! I was trying to fix it off the menu for 2 hours.
Posted on Mar 01, 2007
