1) Have you tried changing around which physical cable hits which input, ie swap red and green cables at both the DVD player and the TV.So: Y - Red Cable, Pr - Green Cable, Pb - Blue Cable
This will determine whether the problem is with the red colored cable or not. You should lose picture if the Red colored cable is defective, or at least have a seriously screwed up one -- given that Y carries brightness information + sync.
If it is, you will need to replace the Red cable.
OTOH, if the Red input is screwed up, it is either the DVD player or the TV set.
2) Use a 2nd DVD player to test progressive out. If the problem goes away with known good cabling, you know the player is at fault.
3) If the problem still exists, it is the TV.

Thank you for your reply. I've already done the testing you recommended, and I'm sure it's the TV. What I would still like to know is how it is possible to have just RED signal dead or significantly attenuated while every other function of the TV is normal. Well, another reason to ditch my TV and get a HDTV-ready model? ~_~
You either have a dieing red gun or a short circuit chewing up all the power that's supposed to be allocated to the red gun.Regards,
