SET PLAYER to p-scan HOW TO SET IT BACK

I stupidly set the player to YUV P-SCAN mode to try it. Apparently my TV doesn't support p-scan. So now all I get is a solid blue screen with sound. So now I can't even see the on screen display to try to set it back to the original default setting. Does anyone know how to reset the player chip defaults or have any ideas?

    NEVERMIND PEOPLE. I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M THIS STUPID. BUT THERE IS AN ACTUAL BUTTON ON THE REMOTE THAT TOGGLES P-SCAN ON OR OFF. I JUST DIDN'T SEE IT AND IT WASN'T MENTIONED ANYWHERE IN THE MANUAL. DUH.

I was messing around with my remote and the settings on my dvd player when i went into the setup and switched the setting to YUV and now my screen has rapid diaganol lines across the screen and i cant see...

Hey, Try seeing is this helps. I am not sure what your remote looks like. Normally you can just unplug the unit for say 5 minutes to give a full clear reset, then plug back in the wall. This should give a hard-reset, but if not, try:
(Only if your TVset doesn't support YUV P-Scan input feature will this above problem happen.)
Step1: Close this DVD player. (make sure there is no disc inside it)
Step2: Press CLEAR button on the remote control,and the system will reset to the default setting.

Hope this helps!

P-scan is used for traditional television screens.
YUV encodes a color image or video taking human perception into account.

How do I turn off Progressive scan?

Hi, follow the steps it may help !! Press STOP button. ? If playing a disc, press the STOP button twice so that ?STOP?, appears on the display. Press and hold P.SCAN button on the remote control for over 5 seconds. ? Pressing and holding the button for over 5 seconds will select "Progressive Scan" and "Interlace Scan" alternately. ?

Turn off progressive scan mode

If you set progressive scant On by accident,you must reset the unit. Remove any disc from the unit and close the disc tray. See that "disc" is displayed on the display window. Now press STOP and hold it for more than 5 seconds before releasing it. The video output will be restored to the standard setting and picture will once again be visible on a conventional analog TV or monitor.
