Toshiba DVD player model so-170ekb connected by scat to our old tv. New tv has no scat points just hdmi points. Can this dvd be connected.

SOURCE: Can't receive proper dvd/vcr signal

Your Toshiba TV uses the American NTSC standard.

Your DVD/VCR uses the Australian PAL B/G standard.

Unfortunately the two are not compatible as they stand, but there may be an option in the DVD/VDR menu to force the output to NTSC. This varies from make to make.


Another option would be to modify your main DVD player to make it multi-region so it will play ALL of your DVDs. Some models can be modified with a simple handset code, some can be modified with a software update, and others need an internal modification.

Post your make and model, and I can advise you on modification.

There are a few options to connect an older t.v. with a DVD player.

1. You can connect your new DVD player to a VCR....not recommended as quality loss will occur....use RCA plugs (Red/white/yellow) but it is easy...and many people have an extra one around
   
2. plug one end of RCA cord into DVD player, other end to VCR (colour match red plug to red cord)
3. then to connect VCR to TV...use the coax VIDEO OUT (on VCR) to the TV
4. 
   
5. OR you can purchase an RF modulator like this at http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/stores/detail/-/electronics/B00009MDBN#moreAboutThisProduct
   
6. this option has a greater cost...but the picture quality will not suffer....Note..you will not have Surround sound...but as it is an older tv. you were not used to that anyway..

SOURCE: Toshiba TV fails to recognize HDMI input

If the tv does all those symptoms but after some seconds the tv works and stays doing the job. THen the tv has a slow microprocessor to recognice the different resolutions or video inputs.

But if the tv cannot do anything and stay aout of signal forever. send the tv to the waranty. (no waranty? you have to use the component input instead to have digital signal reproduced

If you want HDMI 'Auto' mode (the factory default), you need a combination of selecting the proper output mode (use the remote's 'Progressive' button to toggle between the four output modes: HDMI, RCA VGA, component video out and s-video. Once you're in HDMI mode (the led's on the front of the box are a dead give-away!), then you can press the front panel 'HDMI Select' button to move through the five available HDMI settings: 480P, 720P, 1080i, 1080P and 'Auto'. You're in 'Auto' mode when all four led's are lit.
