Sony DAV SC5 Home Theatre System - NO picture only sound when DVD / VCD played

I have a problem with my DAV SC5 system. When we play a DVD / VCD only sound is heard. Picture is blank on the TV. We tried replacing the red white and yellow wires too, but no solution.

Thank you very much for the solution, but please note that earlier when we first bought this home theatre system, all settings were in place and we were able to view the VCD / DVD very well. but it just recently suddenly stopped the picture from appearing on the screen. so it cannot be the settings which have suddenly gone wrong, right???

Have you set the tv type (PAL/NTSC/Multi..) or the component type (RGB, YUV, etc.) suitable for your tv? If not, go to the main menu of your Home Theater System then check it out.

Sony Model DAV ? SB 500W Home Theatre System

Please check at rear of TV for Digital Optical IN port as home theater should have optical out port at rear. If you got any optical in port in TV, just connect optical wire between TV and home theater.

2nd option is check Line Out pins at rear of home theater system, if found, hook red-white RCA cable there and put it to same input in TV where you hooked Video (composite or component) cable.

Let me know the results to help you more.

Component Video Connection

what you have done is you are sending a component video signal from your system to your tv and the sound i assume comes through the 5.1 surrond speakers. The DVD's you play the sound would naturally come from the 5.1 surround speakers, unless your instruct the dvd player to send the sound to the tv in which case will only be played as stereo. you will need inputs on your dav system to take sound from your tv outputs or digital box by way of red and white phono leads or a digital/optical input if you have them; so as to play the sound from cable tv or sattelite tv through your 5.1 surround speakers.

When playing DVD no sound but VCD sound OK.

dvd are up to 6 times the density of a cd there making the laser eye read much closer rings on the disks. so in other words its having a hard time reading dvd. the only thing you can do is take a cotton swap dipped in alcohol and open the tray look with a flashlight for a small optical eye in exact center of dvd player and rub lightly on it to remove dust build up or spray some canned air into the dvd youll hit it. try it again and if no sound again the computer cant keep up with the dvd or vise versa.
