Hi all,
Some of you might remember that I had a problem recording onto DVD from Sky a while ago. I thought I'd post again in case anyone might have any ideas.
Based on advice I set Sky to output RGB and my machine (Panasonic DMREX773) to input RGB. Obviously this is far better quality than recording via Video input.
The only problem is that there's an unsightly black bar to the left of the screen. Here's an example pic of what it's like:
No matter what I try I can't seem to get rid of it. It's fairly noticeable on TV and even worse when playing back a disc on laptop. I'm a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to these things so it is rather annoying!
I've tried changing Scart cable and bought one off eBay described as fully wired and gold plated, but the problem remains.
If I do try recording via the video input on the recorder, while the quality is nowhere near as good, the bar does go.
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance.
