Sony DAV-S3000 B&W Problem??

raul69 (Mostly Harmless) posted this on Wednesday, 20th June 2001, 14:48

Just bought a ixos S-vhs to scart lead and plugged it into the s-video out on the sony dvd player and into the scart socket on the back of my tv.

The player is not multi-region (yet) so when i put a R2 disc in the picture comes up fine but in black and white????????

Is this a problem with my tv?? I only have a 14" Sony tv/vcr combi so maybe it can`t handle the s-video out????

Please let me know if you have any ideas as to what i am doing wrong.

Oh and hooking it up using the scart adapter and video cable it comes with works fine with colour picture?????

Thanks in advance

Jon

That does sound like the tv doesn`t support S-Video via scart.


Look in the tvs manual (or sony`s website if you can`t find the manual) to see if it says the tv supports S-Video

Thanks for your replys

I thought it might be my tv, nevermind though it is only a temporary one until i can afford a kickass big widescreen tv which, hopefully, will support the s-video out.
