Re: Homevision Text over external video

["eamonnogorman" <eamonnogorman@xxxxxxx>]

Thanks Keith,

I'm pretty sure everything is wired up correctly. However, I have
simplified everything now, and i am just connecting sky to my tv,
through HV.

Sky out  ------ In HV Out  ------- In TV

They have to be connected correctly, as I can view the sky channel
on my telly AV channel, which is fed through HV.
I can also display HV TEXT on my Telly AV channel over a blue
background, just not over external video.

Regards,
Eamon
