My equipment should be listed in my sig.

The DVD is connected via component to the 1070's DVD component in.

I have the 1070's component out connected to one of the CRT's component inputs, which accept both interlaced and progressive signals (more on that later).

I also have, for testing, the 1070's s-video out connected to a S-Video in on the CRT.

The 1070's setup menu works fine through S-Video, but not through component. I assume the setup menu is interlaced.

The DVD player has a handy button to toggle the progressive mode, from "Auto" to "Film" to "Video" to "Off". On all 3 progressive settings, the video passes through perfectly to the CRT over component. When progressive is off, nothing appears on the CRT's component input. However, when progressive is off, the S-Video input on the CRT does does display the picture. That seems to contradict the manual, which states component in only gets sent to component out. There's no S-Video connected to the DVD player.

When the DVD player is connected directly to the CRT (I've tried with both sets of cables used in the DVD->1070->CRT setup), progressive and interlaced video works fine on the same component input on the CRT. When switching between interlaced and progressive, it takes about a half second to sync, but it does work.

My question: is this expected behavior? I had a ticket open, but received a response that it's possibly my CRT. Anyone else with this or similar model? Is it just not accepting the interlaced signal from the 1070's component output? I love the 1070, it's just kind of a bummer that my CRT doesn't like it's component interlaced signals, but the interlaced signals work fine from the DVD player, PS2, and Gamecube (I have component connectors for them all).

Thanks,
