How to use SCART for our hobby

<< < (89/94) > >>

joecontra:
Alright!

What schematic did U use and what cable has been yours built of?
Maybe it's up to the TV set, maybe it's very old (just guessing).

Does the TV set give better colors in case of signal from other RGB source?

Regards,

Zebidee:
Resistors on the RGB lines would only make the colours less bright.

Sounds like an issue with your TV being a bit old and tired, so check it with another input source.

A rather less likely possibility is that your video card RGB outputs are relatively low. In that case you could try a video amplifier (ultimate sells them at a reasonable price), but a fair bit of hassle involved with hooking it up. Better to test with another TV first.

Cheers, Zeb

Must be the videocard then because I've tested my CRT with another RGB source and it worked. Bummer! Thx for the answer guys!

Rigby:
well, PC VGA ports typically only output 1V of signal, some monitors like 5V and don't amplify it themselves.  I don't know what voltage SCART expects, but given that it's not a protocol or signalling standard, it seems that it would depend on the TV you're hooking up to.  Amp it up to 5V and I think you'll have an amazing picture.

arcadeswede:
You mean amping the pins red, blue and green?
How? Any tips?
