Page 1 of Problem with new AIWA 370

I`m hoping someone can help me, I bought the Aiwa 370 recently GB firmware (Nicom version 1.2 2000804).

On the set-up I can choose Scart R-G-B, which I much prefer to S-Video.

Anyway I recommended the 370 to a friend who purchase one from Comet (as I did), and Component Video is displayed instead of Scart R-G-B.

Also of concern is that with Pseudo PAL On, NTSC region 1 films are still running at 60Hz which causes flickering on his TV.

>...Component Video is displayed instead of Scart R-G-B.

If it has more than one SCART you will probably find it only has RGB on one of them.

Worse than that though, it could be that his TV doesn`t support RGB at all. Judging by your next comment it is quite an old TV and so may not. What does the TV`s manual say?

Correct, Pseudo PAL on = PAL 60, Pseudo PAL off = PAL 50. So turn it off.

[Ooops, misread component as composite, duh!]

Good point Troll, and ya saved me having to type it! lol

And the "Scart R-G-B" is now called "Component" for our overseas friends!


AIWA 370 9officially) ROCKS!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for clearing that up - the lying monkey told me he had tried the pseudo PAL with both options - but obviously not.
