I need some help here, I am new to the world of HDTV. I just bought a used
34" HDTV, a Phillips 34PW9846 wide-screen (16:9) direct view. I have it
connected to my DVD player (a new Phillips) using component video
connections (the three RCA cables). The picture looks great, but when I try
switching the DVD player to "progressive scan", the screen freaks out, goes
to black, and then automatically turns the progressive scan off
(thankfully).

My TV is several years old, but it does have a 1080i native scan (I
checked). What am I doing wrong? Do I need to switch something on the TV?
Is my set too old to play progressive scan? I really don't know even what
"progressive scan" is, but I have heard it will improve the picture. Any
advice would be REALLY appreciated.

Thanks,

MOSFET
