Hi folks,
I have a chipped Toshiba DVD player (SD420) and a Toshiba TV (32ZD26P) linked via component outputs/inputs.
The results have been excellent up until yesterday when I switched the system on only to be greeted by a bright pink screen(!) instead of the usual blue. When I tried playing a disc through the system, the picture still had a bright pink hue to it.
I switched the whole system off, turned off the mains for 10 seconds and powered up again - still a pink screen. I switched the DVD off and flicked the output at the back of the player from `Component` to `S-video` and back again. When I turned the DVD on again everything was back to normal.
Any suggestions as to why this should have occurred??
