Hi, Most of the TV sets have " Picture Mute" feature which means; if no signal exists on either Antenna plug or on Video input (RCA jack) no picture at all.Blank screen..no audio as well..all MUTED.. to test it ,play a DVD ,you must have pictures and audio together.. Use an antenna ( even a piece of plain cable will work ) ,and run "search" ,you must receive some TV channels thru AIR. Take care and please Remember to rate/vote for us to continue for Helping out the Community :)
There are more than two methods of hooking up the DVD player. 1) Get a 5pin component cable with Red, Green & Blue pins. Connect the DVD Player's RGB out pins to the TV's RGB in socket. This will take care of the picture. Then for sound you will need the second set of Red & White cable. Connect the Red & White pins to the DVD players audio out socket (Red for right channel and White for Left channel ). The other end of the cable you can connect to the Red & White socket next to the RGB socket where you have connected the Video. Play a DVD and scroll through the inputs slowly. You will see the picture appear on one of your selections.
I gather from the information given that you are getting the proper signal from the cable receiver but there may be a settings issue with the LCD TV. If the 720 plasma is giving good performance then it has to be settings on the lcd . I would review the instruction manual to see if you have over look something that is a proper cable select ( hdmi or vga). If you have selected vga you will not get a clear picture in that mode. HDMI is High definition which works properly with 1080P mode. If you have further issue the manufacturer troubleshooting or Knowledge base will give answers also. 1. check your HDMI cables make sure they are properly seated in the input ports squarely not at an angle. 2. If you are using a cable receiver check the connection there. Make sure you have the proper cable for your receiver to the TV 3.check channel to see if you TV is selected for channel 3 or 4 as recommend in the instruction manual 4. check the V-chip setup it may be blocking certain channels 5. check you picture modes each channel can have desire picture setup modes. 6. If you are using rca cables you may not get the proper picture as you would with HDMI cable that are specially designed for High Definition TV
1st, see if you can get another cable box that offers component as well as RCA outputs on the back. Does your cable box have S Video out and does your toshiba have S Video in? If so, hook up the S Video from cable box to Toshiba. Then hook up R&W audio from Cable Box out to Toshiba In. Set the channel on the cable box to what you want to record. Set Toshiba to record channel 3 or 4, whichever your Toshiba is set on. The cable box controls the channel you are recording. You cannot set the recorder to the channel you want to record. It must be either 3 or 4. Try it. If everything else fails, you have to go cable from wall to cable in on cable box, cable out on cable box to cable in on Toshiba then either cable or RCA out on Toshiba to TV.
It should be either ch 3 or 4, BUT the VCR must be turned on and in the "vcr" mode. There may also be an way that you can switch between tuner and Video on the VCR, it would need to be in video mode.
I have a Toshiba 50HP15 PLasma flat screen TV. Its been working tone for 2 years now.

set of Red & White cable. Connect the Red & White pins to the DVD players audio out socket (Red for right channel and White for Left channel ).
