check and see if you have 2 scart sockets on the tv and change them over

I have the same problem with my Pioneer NV-55 system which has been mod chipped.

Strangely when I took my system to my mates house, it worked fine on his TV through a composite video (and separately with an S-Video) input.

My TVs at home have either SCART or RF, no composite nor s-video. I wonder if my problem relates to the cable from the output from the dvd player which is composite or s-video, going to the SCART TV.

I have not got round to getting a stupidly expensive cable (ie 20 GBP one) with all the pins connected and see if that works.

Let us know how you get on

Are you sure your TV is capable of receiving an NTSC signal? If not you need a newTV.

Alan, just curious, what TV did you get? size? model? widescreen? price?
and is it NTSC compatable? Sorry I`m not being nosey, I`m on the lookout for a new TV and not sure what to get!

Thanks in advance

Matt
