? I have a Hitachi ultrascan HD ready TV with a progressive scan DVD player. when I first turn on my DVD player in PROGRESSIVE mode and play a movie it will play for 3 sec and then go black for 3 secs and so on and so on. Then when I mess around with the settings from interlace to progressive scan it seems to work...but I don't know if it is truley in displaying in progressive. I am using Monster componet cables and the componet hookup is selected on my DVD player.
