TV Display Problem: Picture has gone black & white, and there are two pictures side-by-side.
Occurred after pressing some of the undocumented buttons on the DVR Remote Control
(PROG, RANDOM, PS/IS, RADIO, P/N). It was still possible to use the SETUP menu,
although screen was difficult to read.
2008-05-10: Sven: No need for calling technical support on this problem since I managed to
solve it myself by consulting the Troubleshooting Guide of the downloaded WINTAL
DVDRX250, not the TEVION TSD-DR40HD. The WINTAL DVDRX250 document had a
“Picture dividing” entry in the Troubleshooting Guide pointing me in the right direction.
Problem turned out to be caused by my experimentation with the undocumented buttons on the
DRC, specifically me pressing and holding the PS/IS button for more than 3 seconds thereby
switching TV output format from Interlaced to Progressive. Our TV is too old to support
Progressive Scan output.
Fixed via DRC by SETUP > SETUP VIDEO > Video Output Format > Interlaced.
Obviously the PS/IS button should be left alone.
Undocumented Remote Control Buttons: What is the purpose of the PROG and RANDOM
and buttons and how do you use them?
