PS. On some Toshiba TV's the input socket can be switched between Video/SVHS via the TV's on screen set-up menu's.

Check that the settings in the DVD's menu for the connection matches that of the input you are using on the TV.

ie. If the DVD output is set as S-VHS ensure you are using a scart input set for S-VHS on the TV etc.

Options are usually Video, S-Video (SVHS) or RGB.
Mismatch will result in poor colour/picture quality.
