I suspect the no-colour problem may be due to the cabling - I'm using an
SVIDEO to scart cable, and I've seen two messages on the web (albeit from
the USA) saying it's a cable issue. Could it be something else? I've
already been to the store twice for these cables!
Are you sure you can feed S-Video to that input? On my TV there are two
SCARTs in the back but only one of them works with S-Video and I also
have to switch with the remote to SVHS2 and not AV2 (which only gives
BW). Read your TV's manual carefully. BTW, mine is a Daewoo.
Fantastic! You were totally right. It was the second SCART that worked with
S-Video, and on my TV there's an AV2/S channel which displays it in colour. This
is a Panasonic. Reading the manual carefully did reveal one line mentioning
S-Video and the second SCART socket, so I should have picked it up earlier but I
get impatient when wading through pages of seemingly unhelpful documentation.
They had sneaked it in on the page describing a 'normal' set-up with a DVD
player and a satellite receiver, and made no mention of it on the pages
describing other AV inputs.
Thanks for the help.
Regards
Adam
