Hi,
I've bought Joytech 245c component switch and am having a few issues with it.
I have a PS2, XBox 1 and Wii going into it and it's outputting to a LCD TFT.
PS2 & XBox work fine but the with the Wii I'm getting a fast left/right flicker on very white screens in 480p. This affects the main Wii OS screen and the Wii store, Zelda seems to run fine due to it being quite dark and this flicker only occurs in 480p, not in 480i or 576i.
I've uploaded a youtube video showing the problem here :

Unfortunately due to it flickering quite fast it doesn't look so bad in that video though if you look carefully you can see the problem on the main OS page there, also when I go to the photo channel and load up red/green/blue/white screens you can see a massive distortion on the white which is accompanied by loads of left/right wobble/flicker.
I've phoned Joytech and the engineer told me they're aware of the problem and that it's caused by Nintendo pushing encryption down the cable (???), they've said that almost all component switches will be affected by this so presumably the Joytech 240c and 540c are also affected. I've also read of someone with a Psyclone PSC01 switch box having this same issue so it's definitely not just a Joytech thing.
Dunno I don't see a way round this, I only have one component input on my telly so I guess the Joytech has to go back until such time as a solution is found and I have to switch away from Wii component
Bugger.
