Okay, you're totally not funny, even with the dumb duck. I don't have a sense of humor right now--so go away.
I am totally serious...Insignia NS-DVD1
Turn off DVD player with DVD inside it...
Turn on TV and tune to Channel 3
Turn on DVD Player - hopefully the TV will pop into Video 1.
(if that does not work then a picture of BOTH remotes upclose will help.)
But they are right the TV has to be in Video 1 mode. (sometimes it is a simple little button that has TV/Video written on it on the TV remote)
