Why won't it scan?

Open menu in the remote control unit , then open the page for channel search. use the manual search or the auto search/scan mode. Also there are other modes like turbo search in different models for quick scan and memory.

1) Remove any DVD that may be inside
2) Press AND Hold Stop Button (on front of Player) for 5 or more seconds
3) All Done - This will have reset player back to Interlaced Mode and you can now see your DVD!

hi!press the p scan off on remote control

Tested and verified solution:

1. Set Tuner Mode to "antenna".
2. Run a channel scan. Should get zero channels found.
3. Set Tuner Mode to "cable".
4. Run another channel scan.
5. Celebrate!

The most likely cause of this is the unit being in progressive scan mode. In progressive mode, the composite output is disabled. If you can, connect the DVD using the component output connections. If your TV does not have component input, connect the green connector to the yellow on the TV. If the unit is in porgressive scan, you will see a garbled picture on the screen. The only way to fix this is to turn off progressive scan. The manual will tell you how to do this.

Check for video out in the dvd setup menu, and set it for composite,
It may be set for component.

another thing to try is setting the the progressive scan option off in the setup menu, you wont benefit from it, but at least it might work.
if you already tried using the prog scan and your T.V isnt compatible, you'll need to reset. press stop to stop any playing disc, and press stop again holding it for 5 seconds to reset the system.

good luck!

we could go through the setting like, you can see the monitor. using the remote do the following steps:
Step 1. press set up button.
Step 2. press down arrow once. ( playback)
Step 3. press OK.
Step 4. press down arrow once. (video (selection))
Step 5. press OK. (progressive scan)
Step 6. press OK, again.
Step 7. press down arrow once. (progressive scan off)
Step 8. press OK
you have now turned progressive scan off.

press stop and keep hold of the stop button while you eject the dvd, it worked for me, i played around with it and found pressing stop and holding it while ejecting works

Stuck in Progressive Scan Mode??? Remove the disc(s) from the changer, make sure TV is on Blue Screen...should say "Progressive Scan Mode".......Simply press and hold the stop button for 5-10 seconds and it will reset.
