Question:

VCR/LCD incompatibility puzzle...

I have a strange predicament...I recently bought a Syntax Olevia 37-inch LCD HDTV (LT37HVS). When I hook up my Panasonic VCR via composite inputs, the TV cannot detect the VCR ("no signal detected"). The particularly strange thing is that if I use the TV's Picture-in-Picture function, the VCR works, but only in the small PIP frame. When I try to switch it to the bigger frame, it goes blank and says "no signal detected" again.I know that the TV's composite inputs work because when I hook up my DVD player to them it works fine. I also know that the VCR works because it was fine on my former 32-inch CRT tv. The VCR only has composite outputs, so I can't try another type of connection.I called Syntax tech support and they had no answer other than, "it sounds like that VCR is incompatible with our tv."Does anyone have a more specific idea as to what the problem is?Thanks.M
