Help! I recently upgraded to the Sony FX68 - great TV, but I can't get it to recognize my ntl cable box's RGB signal. My cable box is scarted to my Sony VCR which is scarted to SCART input no. 2 on my FX68.
I am getting a picture but it is the standard non-RGB (I can tell cos the symbol in the top left corner of the screen stating AV2 doesn't have the 3 dots in it).
I've been into my ntl picture settings to ensure it's sending an RGB signal and tried viewing with both the VCR switched on and off, but no luck - I just get the standard picture.
The strange thing is that the Sony 4:3 TV that the FX68 has replaced was set up exactly the same (ntl box via the video) but did get the RGB signal. Confusing!
One thing I did do when I first auto-tuned the FX68 was have my VCR connected via scart 3 (non-RGB). The TV automatically recognized my VCR cos it's smartlink and the VCR started flashing "auto-tune". Later, when I'd read the TV intructions, I changed the VCR across to scart 2 in an effort to get RGB. Could this have messed things up?
Finally, on a slightly different note, when I watch ntl I have vague wavy lines going up the screen but when I switch the VCR on (as opposed just to having it in standby) they disappear. I know this is not a problem with my new TV - it happened with the old one. Any ideas?
