Grey Screen Using Scart on Plasma TV
« on: July 22, 2009, 01:01:57 PM »
I made an RGB + audio to scart some time ago which worked great when connecting either my A1200 or A600 to a CRT tv.

Yesterday I used the cable to connect to my Samsung 42" Plasma, but was unable to get a picture.  The tv picked up the signal ok enough to be able to switch the input, but was unable to show anything other than a light grey 'picture'.

I then used the AV ports instead which produced a picture straight away - thus proving that the Amiga's not at fault.

Does anyone know whether this particular tv requires something extra or special in the scart plug/wiring to provide output?

Cheers.

Whey hey!  Problem fixed - well actually it's not fixed as there was never a problem in the first place.  I'd plugged the Amiga's scart into a non-RGB socket - hence the grey screen. Doh!
