Been looking around but cant seem to solve my problem. Ive got a pal xbox with executor1 running evox. Connected to a panasonic ae300 projector via gamester high def pack using component cables. Im having varying degrees of success.
If the machine is set to PAL mode, then i get a 625i evox, but games run in 525i, the pic is very nice however. If I switch to NTSC mode, I get a 525p evox and 525p games, but the image sufferes severe ghosting, if I connect in the svideo cable aswell the ghosting disapears but the image has a green tinge, not pretty either way.
NOTE: mode 625i = 720*576i, 525i = 720*480i, 525p = 525*483, and according to the projector manual 625i will give the best picture, along with RGB an HDTV.
Im mainly using PGR2 as a reference, as looking at the number plate gives a good idea of sharpness. Its hard to notice any real difference between the 525i and 525p in terms of sharpness, im assuming thats down to the quality of the descaler in the projector, but the 525p does just pip it. But the green tinge is obviously unaceptable (even if that is the xbox colours) and makes it not worth while.
Ive set all the options in the msdash for 480, 720 and HDTV on. The projector supports HDTV but do any games run this high?
SO.......
Why is it outputing an NTSC signal (525i) in PAL mode? And why is the NTSC mode ghosting without the svideo, which leads to greening. Im happy with the quality (playing on a 100" wall with clearer than any previous setup gfx is obviously good), but I would love it if it could be better. Any help MUCH appreciated.
Many Thanks
