Fixing the TV Display when using the LG DVD Player

Yes, I understand that we live in a world where we don’t even need DVD players anymore, but we have a pretty epic DVD collection here at the office so why let it go to waste!?

When we plugged in the HDMI cable and turned on the TV, the TV display had racing stripes like when you record a video vertically and try to post it on Youtube.

I quickly figured out that clicking “Setup” or “Display” on the LG DVD remote WOULD NOT fix my catastrophic  problem. Like a 12 year old I began clicking random buttons on the remote while swearing and planning my journey back to Walmart when the TV Display shifted to the correct position.

HIT “RESOLUTION” at the bottom of the LG DVD remote until you see the TV read 720p or 1080p.

Here’s a playlist to listen to, hopefully this helps calm you down before you throw the remote at the TV.
