My sony trinitron shows s-video in black and white

Post#1 » Thu Dec 01, 2016 7:00 am

I have a sony trinitron and when using s-video the screen is black and white but has a sharp goodlooking image. when also inserting the yellow cable I get a distorted colored image, that looks worse than just av cables. I trie4d various av cables and the s-video cable is fine as well. when using rgb the image is great as well. any idea what I could do?

It might be a defect in the S-Video port itself, or the cable could be bad. Does the same cable display on other TV's? My 42 inch 1080P Philips TV doesn't handle my S-Video signal at all, but my Pioneer Plasma which is 720p 43 inch works fine with it. I get a completely black screen with it on my Philips.
