27" Sansui TV - S-Video - Blurry picture, any suggestions?
« on: September 06, 2006, 07:57:36 pm »
In my cab, I currently have a Sansui 27" TV hooked into an NVidia GeForce 4 MX 420 through S-Video.  It looks fine for games, but menus have quite the tendency to be blurry.

Does anyone have any suggestions for this?  I know there's not much you can do with a plain old TV, but are there any suggestions for alternatives?  Thanks so much.

Hard to say but asuming it is not a picture tube problem, check the grounds on the signal cable.

What S-video is is that Chroma (col0r information) is on one wire with ground.
Luminance (brightness) on another with ground.

If You are using an SVHS cable try replacing it.

Hope it helps
