@ZenonMan: tried using "S" video from the Video Monitor out and the Video Record out to the TV. No joy either way.
The record outputs don't carry the OSD. The monitor output should carry it, though.
@Koyaan: the unit will play, but I've lost all of my previous configs. Cannot get the menu to function using either the front panel buttons or the OSD. For some reason when I go to input #3 on the TV I'm getting whatever my DirecTV receiver is showing. I've never configured the 990 for video. I've pulled the optical connections, #s 1 & 2, out and just used the "S" video from the video outs and I get nothing at all on the receiver input on the TV. It used to work just fine since I got and configured the unit in 2009. There's no one here but me, so the odds of someone else doing something is not part of the equation.
I made the mistake earlier today of doing a reset to see if I could get the menu to display and that was a huge mistake since I lost all of my configurations.
I created a ticket with tech support this afternoon, so I hope to hear from them tomorrow.
Thanks,
Bob
It's always hard to trouble-shoot these sorts of things, but I think you're on the right track with the s-video monitor output. You should be able to connect s-video, composite video, or component video "MONITOR" output to a display, set the display to that input, and enter the setup menu. You won't get any signal until the menu loads, because you probably don't have a video signal connected and configured. That may cause some TVs to report "no signal" until the menu loads.
