Scart image shift to the left?

Bikerbloke (Harmless) posted this on Monday, 5th February 2001, 15:26

Anyone else noticed that when conected via a scart lead the image on the TV appears to be shifted to the left slighty, and I think I`m missing a small part of the left side ?

(That`s left side of the picture - not my brain !)

Both DVD & Video appear to have this.
The TV is a Sony of about 5 years old

Any fixes - is it a dodgy scart lead ?

I had the same problem on my Hitachi if I selected RGB mode - I had to get into the secret service menu where there was a separate option to shift the RGB picture over a bit to match the non-scart picture.

you could try it with your Sony - but be VERY careful in service mode as you can completely screw your telly.

But it affects both DVD & Video..I very much doubt his VCR is capable of producing an RGB output. But a VERY common problem when using RGB as you say!

ah well - perhaps it depends on the telly - if you can find out the service code maybe you can find a setting that does the trick for all scart.

Good luck!

I`ve got a Hitachi C24W1TN TV and experience the same 1" shift to the right when using RGB. Any chance of letting me into your secret menu thingy secret.
Thanx
