TV-out problem

[Mungigan]

Hi!

I have a Geforce2 MX and connected to the TV with a scart-contact I only get a Black & White picture and no sound..

I have tested all the settings as PAL - NTSC - S-video and so on.. can anyone help me??

What Settings did you use to transfer the Video on the monitor to the TV? I hope it wasn't just checking that box that says something about enabling desktop properties to other monitor. That doesn't work. You don't want that box checked at all. Once the TV monitor is enabled (Monitor # 2) click on the Monitor #1 and then click on 'Advanced' tab. You will see many more tabs of which one will be 'Twin View'. Click on that tab and then select 'clone' my desktop to other monitor. That's what worked for me to get the correct video on my TV. I use S-video so I have to run my sound seperately from my sound card to the TV.

Thanks for yor answer

I have a multicable S-video or video on the Scartcontact.. I use S-video...

i use twinview and get two monitors and I set the TV separatly to S-video and PAL-G.. in fact I have tried every connection there is...
My soundcables is connected to my soundcard.... Soundplaster 512 PCI..

The picture on my TV from the DVD is perfect.. BUT.. it is still BW and has no sound... ((... Im a little bit tired now...

The best answer Ive ever got in a forum!!!






but... now I have great picture.. but still no sound.. how shall i connect the soundcables to my soundcard/TV? Ive tried every connection there is....

[biglothian]

HELLO AGAIN RIGHT I HAD THIS PROBLEM TO FOR THE SOUND YOU NEED TO RUN A JACK FROM THE SPEAKER SOCKET ON YOUR SOUND CARD (THE ONE YOUR SPEAKER JACK GOES INTO) YOU NEED A SOCKET LIKE IN THE PICTURE I`VE ATTACHED THEN I BOUGHT A 3 IN 1 SCART SOCKET GOT THIS IN ARGO`S FOR £8 CONSIDERING YOU ARE IN UK PLUG THE SOCKETS FOR THE S-VIDEO CABLE AND THE SCART LIKE IN THE PICTURE FROM THE SOUND CARD PLUG INTO THE 3 IN 1 AND THE SOCKET CABLE INTO YOUR VCR AND YOUR PROBLEMS SHOULD BE SOLVED

HAPPY RECORDING
