Hi,
I've just using a RGB scart cable with optical digital audio connector. When booting Gentoox, the screen is green and stays green.
When booting with a composite scart cable (and stereo jacks), Gentoox boots fine in full color.
I've read the Q&A, FAQ's, these forums but couldn't find anything on this subject.
Anybody have an idea? (have tried xbvset, only shows Composite@640x480).
BTW, the screen is clipped. So the right option should be 600x480?
Thanx...
Green output on RGB cable on Xbox 1.6
no-go on Gentoox home 3.2
Hi Thomas,
I've reinstalled the home version 3.2.
With xbvset I get & choose:
You have a Xcalibur encoder which gives you the following options:
(Note: Composite also works with SCART)
Composite
HDTV
Input: Composite (* If I choose HDTV, the screen is chaotic *)
What TV display mode would you like to use?
640x480
Input: 640x480
What regional mode would you like to use?
PAL
NTSC
Input: PAL
Changing Xfree video mode to: Composite 640x480 - PAL
Updating bootloader to: video=xbox:640x480,nohwcursor,hoc=0,voc=0
Setting XVKBD to: /usr/bin/X11/xvkbd -geometry 640x130+0-81 &
Rebooting in ...
After the reboot, the screen is still very green and clipped from all sides. With my composite cable, I get color, but still a clipped screen.
Is it possible to have it work with RGB/Digital audio?

OK
Ok thanx,
I've read the manuals. I thought the overscan issue was related to (selfmade) VGA cables.
Any chance it will be fixed? Or should I stick with Composite with no 5.1 sound?
Is a S-VHS cable an option? I've received messages it will have thesame quality view and can have 5.1 digital out.
Regards,
Raymond
