S-Video problem

Xelogen · 01-30-2006, 02:26 AM

I have an s-video cable and connected between my video card (Radeon Express 200m) and television. It would'nt show up on any channel and I'm having trouble configuring windows to run it. I've tried it on more than one tv so that cant be the problem. Anyone have any ideas?????

Have you set up the display as a Clone in your display driver? (Display Properties -> Settings -> Advanced -> (Name of Video Card))

On my TV I get the signal by selecting the channel I otherwise get the signal from my VCR.

It wouldnt be on a channel number, it would be on the Input channel. Its different on all TV's, but there should be some sort of "Input" or "a/v" button on your remote. And you should get a signal when booting, so if it doesnt show up on boot, then its not a software problem.

1.It will ussaly be a Video channel you will find it on.

2.You will need to setit with your drivers. For Nvidia you right click it and go to which moniter you want, or dual dual or whatever its easy. i did it will my televisdion, the only bad this is you have to have it on really LOW resualtions.
