hi there
i just wanted to check, how would i connect my dstv to the above mentioned tv as it doesnt have any rca input?

its gots ybrpr,hdmi, pc connectionand an aerial input and thats it

currently if you connect the existing rca cables to the ybrpr input, you get sound and only picture if you connect the yellow cable to one of the ybrpr inputs but in black and white...

thanks in advance..

Suppose you have a newer decoder without RF output? If so they you're a bit stuffed (unless you got a VCR). Probably a good excuse to upgrade to the HDPVR2P.
 
its on of the older silver ones actually

hmm
if by rf you mean that "aerial" output than i think it does have that....

is it simply a matter of connecting that output to the RF input on the tv?
 
use the component 1 inputs, ie the bottom row, put the yellow into the green and white into white and red into red.

I dont know why it doesnt work on the component 2 input. i.e the top row, i dont know why it doesnt work there, also on my ps42c420 if i use the top row i get black and white picture.

edit: here is quick manual if you are lost

Check www.hdcabling.co.za maybe drop them a mail. The converters they have seem helluva pricey but they might have a cheaper solution if you mail them with your requirement.

Alternatively, go out and get yourself an HD-PVR, your TV deserves it :D
 
excellent

@roman not sure what you mean there?

@D3x will try the other row tonight

@fudzy the hd-pvr is scheduled for december, so i just need to get this working till then
:D

i would love to know why the same doesn't work on the top row, i.e component 2 in, kinda a pain if you have 2 rca connections as you need to switch out all the time.
 
On my LA46D550 the component is interchangeable with composite
 
sorted
the bottom composite actually works with the yellow rca plugged into the green composite
but only the bottom one, not the top...
weird..

so just for future reference PS51D450 bottom composite is the RCA

thanks guys!

Sorry pal, I'm only sure of fronts of TVs - not the backs. :D

Possibly firmware. Speak to Samsung perhaps.
