I have just purchased an Hitachi 505 DVD and a Panasonic TX-PF10 TV. They are connected via a scart lead. But the picture is like watching a game on my pc in 600 pixells and needs to go to 1024, the background is not clear at all. The shop I bought these from say it is because the TV is 100hz. I have tried different scart sockets but still the same picture quality. Could someone please help me with my set up as my VCR is clearer.

Try swapping from one Scart port to another, switching the type of output, ie RGB, S-vid, composite, and even try the S-vid (4-pin mini-din) output on the back of the DVD player. Basically, try and eliminate and re-create the problem by changing as many things as you can. If you can't then perhaps something is more seriously wrong.
Do you have a digibox? Do you see similar problems with that? FYI Digtal TV uses the same compression technique as DVD so if your digibox is fine using the same scart port as the DVD and same interconnect signal type e.g. RGB then your DVD player is probably a duffer.
Failing that, try a diferent player, then try a different TV, both 100Hz and 50Hz.
In conclusion, your dealer is talking out of his hat. The picture should be fantastic almost all of the time and should kick the Sh*t out of your VCR no problem.
