I have an approx 6 year old Nokia TV and a new Schnieder 810 DVD. I have applied the region hack to the DVD. I have tried a couple of disks form Asia and the DVD will play them fine, but the TV has problems gaining vertical sync on the video signal.
I have tried the output on an older Philips TV and I know that the DVD is playing it correctly. In one of the menus on the Nokia TV is a selection of the colour system which is set to PAL. This menu setting is `skipped` by the firmware apearing to indicate that the TV is capable of syncing to other systems but it is deliberately not alowing it for some reason.
It is strange bacause I might have expected it to look OK but have trouble with the colour. However, the colour looks OK, but it can not gain vertical sync and just keeps rolling.
Does anyone know if ther is anything I can do about this?
