I have an LG BluRay Media Player BD590 (GREAT piece of equipment by the way). I am having problems connecting it to my ProScan 32LB45Q 1080P LCD television. Here is what I have done:
1. Connected the two units with HDMI HighSpeed cable 2. Changed the vidio setting in the Media Player to 1080p
When I play a BluRay disc the screen flickers and the audio is garbled. The Media Player does state the following:
"If a connected HDMI device does not accept the audio output of the player, the HDMI device's audio sound may be distorted or may not output." Is this my problem? If yes, then can I still use the HDMI cable for video and a coxial cable for the audio?
If you have more than one HDMI connection, have you tried all the HDMI ports on the TV?
On my TV, the RCA audio (red+white) is grouped with the composite video (yellow RCA jack), so when I switch to HDMI, HDMI is the connector that is "live".
Well, I didn't give up. I purchased a NEW HDMI cable and replaced the one that was on the two units. The orginal HDMI cable is a HIGH quality cable, but did not work. The new cable is a different brand High Speed cable and it worked right out of the box.
For anyone looking for a media player I highly suggest the LG BluRay Media Player model 590. It comes with a 250g built-in hard drive for storing movies, music, or pictures. The built-in WiFi is FAST. The interface between the media player and my laptop easy to use.
