Just the obvious things... Did you build the cable correctly? ftp://ftp.matrox.com/pub/mga/forum_img/scart.gif ftp://ftp.matrox.com/pub/mga/forum_img/g400boc.gif Did you check the cable with a multimeter? Did you connect it to the connector marked '2'? Can you try it with another TV? All I can really say is that it works for me. However my TV is a cheap and simple one so that might not actually mean much :) -- Ville Syrjälä [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.sci.fi/~syrjala/ _______________________________________________ directfb-users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.directfb.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/directfb-users
