I think it outputs composite at the same time via other SCART pins but that is normal for SCART connections. You need to make sure that you have a fully RGB populated SCART lead (some cheap commercial ones are not but I think the one that comes as standard with the mvp is OK) The TV should then work it out for itself and display the best available (RGB) and ignore the composite on the other pins. Composite should only be used if the TV is not capable of understanding the RGB signals. I have four mvps and they all do RGB this way. The only problem I have was with Panasonic Plasma which gets confused by the "Sync on Green" RGB output from the mvp. It still worked but the display was very green. There is a hardware mod for this available but you need the soldering iron! cheers Dave ( also Hampshire UK) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Mvpmc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mvpmc-users mvpmc wiki: http://mvpmc.wikispaces.com/
