Are you using the VGA port on the Jensen TV? What is your computer's OS?
The usual reason for the unsupported mode message is that the the computer did not recognize the TV as a monitor on boot up or that the previous settings were incompatible with the TV. (For example, if you previously had a CRT connected to the computer and used a refresh rate of 75 Hz, the TV can't handle the refresh rate. It needs to be set at 60 Hz.)
First turn off both the TV and the computer. Then turn on the TV and set it for the PC input (assuming you are using the VGA port). Next turn on the computer. If you have Windows XP or later, it should find the TV and set the resolution without any input. (If it doesn't, use a different monitor and set the resolution to 1366 x 768 and 60 Hz. Then try again.) If you used the HDMI port, try the VGA port. This TV doesn't understand a computer signal over the HDMI port (only set top boxes).
Change the settings on your HDMI output to 720 progressive for resolution. The tv likely cannot handle the 1080 resolution, or the tv can only use interlaced (1080i or 720i) format.
Hi, LCD Emerson only support screen with a 1440 x 900 720p resolution. And PS3 has support 1080p or full HD. You must arrange output HDMI resolution to 1440 x 900 or to 720p. thanks.
You get invalid format, or format not support becuase the video resolution setting on your PC is too high for the monitor to display, you need to lower your PC video resolution to the native resolution of the TV to get the best picture. Look at the owner manual for your TV or search the web.
hi if you have an xboxelite the you can do it via hdmi cable, but if you have the normal xbox360 then its just the vga plug ime affraid hope this helps
I have the same problem with my 360 i am just going to by a new tv i cant find the remote code. or any thing and the hdmi port don't work that's my answer this TV sucks and it is ****..
did you hook the dvd player or xbox 360 to see it if still works after ps3? if still no result, it's most likely that the motherboard in the lcd shorted out.
