question about progressive scan ?

bruce wayne

Hi,

I have this tv http://www.consumer.philips.com/consumer/catalog/catalog.jsp?fhquery=fh_secondid%3D26pf9946_12_ie_consumer%26fh_location%3D%2F%2Fconsumer%2Fen_IE%2Fcategories%3Ccatalog_ie_consumer%2Fcategories%3Ctv_gr_ie_consumer%2Fcategories%3Cflat_tv_ca_ie_consumer%2Fcategories%3Clcd_medium_21_29_su_ie_consumer%26&productId=26PF9946_12_IE_CONSUMER&activeCategory=TV_GR_IE_CONSUMER&fredhopperpage=detail.jsp&language=en&country=IE&catalogType=CONSUMER&proxybuster=VMRKB22O50V0FJ0RMRESHQVHKFSEKI5P
which staes in the specs that it is progressive scan capable......but there are no component inputs ??? only scart inputs.....i thought you could'nt get progressive scan through a scart.....am i wrong ? Failing that....anyone have any ideas how to hook up a progressive scan dvd player to my tv ?

anyone ?

I've sent Phillips a mail......they have'nt gotten back to me yet

link fixed

As far as I know, and this isn't gospel it doesn't matter what cable you use, once the TV can display progressive scan images. Again I don't your tv needs anything special, as it's imbedded into the signal, IE Line Sync Pulse and Broad pulse.... it's more dependant on the was the beams or light are focused and what order etc.... again not gospel.

That link doesn't work either.

as said above link doesn't work but usually you do need component to get progressive scan onto a tv, definitely can't drive it with any kind of analog input...
You may have a scart with component built in?

Other connections : Antenna IEC75, Audio constant level out, DVI-D, FM antenna, PC in VGA & audio L/R in
Front / Side connections : Audio in, CVBS in , Headphone out, S video in

reading the specs probably helps
