I think it's a TV issue. My panasonic TV has three SCART input sockets: two offer composite or S-Video, one only offers composite. As I cycle through the AV inputs I can select. AV1, AV1S, AV2, AV3, AV3S -> . Selecting AV1 when the AV1 input is S-Video gives a black and white picture and vice versa. If I'm sending an S-Video signal, I need to select AV1S. Hope this helps. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
