Originally posted by dataDave View PostI just realised that the phono break-outs on my SFC Packapunch are reversed.Originally posted by dvdx2 View PostLol - from the the 4 bnc to scart leads I bought from them, 2 now have a faulty colour line and 1 has a borked bnc....Originally posted by dataDave View PostI'm going to stick to Ebay for my cables from now on and spend less than a fiver each time. I can't even tell the difference, to be honest - and I'm about as anal as you can get.
The worst offender I had from RGC was the Packapunch Saturn cable, that i returned -- they said they tested it and it was fine, and sent it back -- it basically would lose sync or one of the three RGB colours continuously. In two Jap Saturns it was the same story!
Got a cheap chinese made RGB cable, and it works perfectly, and I can't see any difference on my PVM.
The Packapunch Megadrive one I got had noise all over the picture. I got a replacement for that which looks perfect, but still own the faulty one and it's just awful.
...and a PS1 cable with no sync wired!
I might get better Scart to BNC stuff to be honest, as my one is once again from there!

If you're set on being in the CRT game indefinitely I'd recommend investing in one.
The degauss definitely causes the screen to go all funny but it doesn't remove the yellow.
He's suggested removing videosignal (which I guess means not having anything plugged in) whack the brightness up and see if the raster is clear. At least it gives me something to do :P

As [MENTION=2697]dvdx2[/MENTION] says though, yours doesn't look like a landing issue at all.

It's totally impossible to shimmy the red plug around to get a signal now. Then the sync cable started to do the same, resulting in a rolling picture.
