keith,<BR><BR>I have tried

problem)<BR><BR>On the r/x kat5 I have one of this scart to

the problem.<BR><BR>Keith one sugges
tion would be to have s-video and photo connectors on<BR>the boxes as
the scart can be a pain. Maybe have an option. I don't know<BR>how

question<BR><BR>Hi Amar,<BR><BR>I do know why you
get the RED Picture.<BR><BR>Your KAT5 units are AVS designed to
carry S-Video and Stereo.<BR><BR>They expect...
<BR>Composite Video or Y/C_Luma on Pin 20/19
(IN/OUT)<BR>Y/C_Chroma on Pin 15<BR>Left Audio on 6/3
(IN/OUT)<BR>Right Audio on 2/1 (IN/OUT)<BR><BR>By
comparison, RGB is actually 4 video signals<BR><BR>Composite
Sync on Pin 20/19 (IN/OUT) [Same as above]<BR>Red Video on Pi
n 15 [Same pin as used by Y/C_Chroma]<BR>Green Video on Pin 11 [KAT5
AVS does not use this pin]<BR>Blue Video on Pin 7 [KAT5 AVS does not
use this pin]<BR><BR>which explains why you get a Red picture
as you have an RGB signal<BR>without the Green and
Blue!<BR><BR><BR>I dont know why you get the instability
problem with the
<BR><BR>NTL_RGB2SVideo_KAT5TX_CAT5_KAT5RX_Projector
setup.<BR><BR>Several people are happliy using the RGB2SVideo
converters with KAT5.<BR>Is it ONLY the projector that suffers this
problem ?<BR>Is it ONLY when using NTL as the source
?<BR><BR>What happens if you try
<BR><BR>DVD_RGB2SVideo_KAT5TX_CAT5_KAT5RX_Projector<BR><BR>or
<BR><BR>DVD(SVideo)_KAT5TX_CAT5_KAT5RX_Projector<BR><BR>or<BR><BR>PC-TVout(S-Video)_KAT5TX_CAT5_KAT5RX_Projector<BR><BR><BR>Keith<BR><BR>www.diyha.co.uk<BR>www.kat5.tv<BR>

question<BR><BR><BR>Keith,<BR><BR>I have
tried a few wiring ideas with the kat5 and found something
really<BR>interesting. I wired my ntl box (sending rgb) through kat5
to my<BR>projector. At the projector end I put a terminated kat5
receiver, the<BR>output of which I put into a rgb2svideo converter.
What I get on the<BR>screen is a red picture. Why is that
?<BR><BR>However if I wire the rgb2svideo converter to the
output of the ntl box<BR>and send the s-video signal down the kat5
and get a picture (with the<BR>flickering problem) on the other
side.<BR><BR>Comments
