So not cool---HD HELP???

[Nomah5]

Candyman and everyone else.....I hooked up my HD-dvd player last night as some of you may know and it worked fine last night. Well, now it doesnt anymore, yet when I bring it into my bedroom on a much smaller TV, it works perfectly fine. So, I changed the HDMi cables multiple times and to no avail. I would get the Toshiba, loading and the hd-dvd logo on the screen but then no picture or audio. Isnt that Strange?

I thought it was my hdmi port on my tv....well I hooked up my 360 to it and it works perfectly fine. Any ideas????

It could be the player is SWITCHING from HDMI. I believe you should have an option on your PLAYER remote called V OUTPUT. Check the front of the player & make sure when the problem happens the player has HDMI displaying on the front. If not hit the V Output on the PLAYER remote until you see No Disc on your screen

It DOES have hdmi on the screen. I just dont get it, epsecially when it works flawlessly on my bedroom tv and the 360 works flawlessly on the big tv via hdmi.

Nomah, plug everything & fire the player up. If the problem happens again, directly unplug the cable from the back of the player(not the outlet). Allow for a minute or 2. This let's the player reset itself. Plug the cable back into the player & see what happens

I did that bigfjoe and it gives me the option to setup the time and date, etc. Then it shows the little circle in the corner loading and the hd-dvd logo on the bottom. Then the screen is all black and the counter plays. I simply can't comprehend this at all.

As soon as you fire up the HD-DVD player, click on the setup button and take a look at your video settings. Something might be screwed up in there. See if you can get the setup button to work.

There could be a issue with the line going to that TV.

What TV is it hooked up to that is giving you problems and what TV is it hooked up that isn't giving you problems?

Talk about issues. I just got home from a night of booze and sure enough the player now works. I wonder if I need to leave it on 24/7
