My father somehow set the DVD player to prog scan (blue indicator on the front), and the screen is very distorted on our regular TV (black noise, with diagonal interfence lines). How do we set the DVD back to regular interlaced scan? I have tried using the "setup" on the remote, and I have done my best, but it is impossible to read the menu's because the screen is distorted too much. Also, I tried holding the "stop" button done for 5 secs, but this did not cause anything to change. Please reply with any help you can provide. Thank you Alan
You need to be sure to remove the discs from the disc changer and close the disc changer. Make sure that your TV is on the Blue Screen and it should say " Progressive Scan Mode" Press and hold the stop button on the unit....not the remote for 5 seconds or more and it should reset. However, if your TV is a Progressive Scan compatible TV, you may need to refer to the user guide for the TV as well....Many newer TVs Use a Progressive Scan Setup, but this solution should still work for you. Make sure all discs are removed FIRST!!!

Look at your remote or the face of your console. If you have a button labeled P/I, this stands for progressive/interlace. Progressive scan mode can only be used with a progressive scan TV. Press the P/I to switch from one mode to the other.
