Apologies if this is the wrong forum, but you all seem fairly knowledgable on all aspects of AV so I thought I'd try here first.
I have a Panasonic dmreh60d and a Sony 32fx60 TV. Everything is set to rgb, on the dvd, tv and Pace sky box.
I have also bought 2 new ixos scarts to connect above equipment.
The problem - when the dvd is in standby I get a perfect rgb picture, However when I power on the dvd I can only see reds and greens(frrom sky av2). However If I wait for about 3 minutes, and don't touch anything (Ie wiggle leads etc) the blue mysteriously appears. However sometimes the blue will disappear for about a 1 min at anytime. If I'm recording from the sky box (av2) then if the blue goes the recordded picture will show this.
The tv has been on for over an hour and the sky box is always on.
I don't understand that when the Pana 60d is in standby, the loop through rgb works fine, but when you power it on it takes about 3-5 mins for the rgb to work.
Any ideas.
I've tried the simple stuff, replacing scarts, making sure they're all snuggly fitted.
Should I be snipping pin 8 on my scart, is it a sky problem, tv or a Pana problem?
