Denon 3805 Garbled On Screen Display

[SpurAK]

Hi,

I just purchased a Denon 3805 and evrything seems to be working great it is a major upgrade from my little old Sony reciever.

Only area I seem to be having trouble with is the on screen display. Anytime I go into setup the menus show up on my TV completeley garbled and flickering. Looks like a computer monitor when you have it set to a resolution it does not support.

Here is my setup.

Sony DVD ---Component Cable--- Video in 1 (Optical 2 for sound)
DBS ---Component Cable--- Video in 3 (Optical 1 for sound)
3805 ---Component Cable--- Mitsubishi TV Comp In 480i/480p/720i/1080i

DBS works great, get 480i on channels that are not Hi-Def and 1080i on others.

DVD works as it is supposed to as well.

I am sure I have done something wrong but I can not figure out what.

Any Suggestions?

Thanks!

Try to cross check the MONITOR cables again.
It can be either COMPOSITE ( yellow RCA), or S-VIDEO.
Monitor out from the Denon to the TV correspondent video input.

Let us know about it.

Good point on the menu settings. Try menu 5, option setting 6.

Also check your dispay sync settings.

Your cables and equipment are fine.
