The progressive output has a higher '?frequency?'. Does your TV support 480p? Normal TVs are like 480i, and the "bandwith" of a progressive signal is higher. (I am a moron here, so please don't crush me for my shortcomings in the technical areas I'm just trying to get to an answer for this guy) HDTV is like 1080i. So in my muddled way I am asking: DOES your TV support 480p signals?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
If you read your TV's owner manual and the TV stats don't say anything about 480p or 1080i or "HDTV ready" or anything like that, you just CANNOT use the progressive output, period. The TV must have the ability to accept the higher rate signal for the progressive to work.
++++++++ If your TV CAN support 480p or 1080i... I don't know why it's not working for you???
