Ok...I had someone nicely build me a TV Cable...I'm sure the cable works right, he says he tested it before he sent it and I believe him. I'm sure the problem is that the cable is fine, and I'm just stupid.
But I can't make the darn thing work!
I enabled TV out on Pandy...set for Main Layer, NTSC (I'm in the United states, so NTSC is right) and set for "composite" I then wrote the TV-Out settings, thus making them active.
I plugged the red plug into Audio IN on the TV - and the hole it went into was also lined with red.
I plugged the white plug into Audio IN on the TV - and the hole it went into was also lined with white.
I plugged the yellow plug into Video IN and the hole was lined with yellow.
Note I also tried this earlier using the black plug for S. Video...and had set the options of the Pandy for S Video
I plugged the other end of the plug into the EXT on the back of my Pandy. I know I plugged it into the right place there, too, because it fit like a gun in a holster.
Nothing. Just freaking snow on the TV....as if it doesn't even know something is plugged in.
The TV is question is an old piece of shit, an RCA Model # F27678VC - it's an old big box piece of shit, not a nice sleek flat screen. We're gonna GET one of those when we move to North Carolina.
Now, the TV I got upstairs...that piece of shit won't even turn on...hasn't been used in like eight years. And the plug up there is good, other things run with that plug, so the problem there is the TV itself.
But the downstairs TV...the RCA piece of shit...that one DOES work. But it won't put my Pandy on the TV!
Help, anyone?
