 |
|
Are Playstation component cables just pass-thru or do they have electronic gubbins in there too?
I made a cable last year for my PS2 which appears to work with RGB but not component. It doesn't work with HD resolutions on my PS3 (my TV says "no sync" and goes into power saving mode)
I'm having no luck finding one locally at the moment, and I don't fancy ordering one just to find it's the same as the one I made and can't return it. |

| My PS2 component cable is just a passive cable. You need to switch the PS2 into component mode for the display to work right though. |

Got it working!
The G and B were the wrong way round. I'm confused as it worked fine the other way round on my PS2.
Mmmm, 1080i now on my telly :) |

Ah, it's just struck me that it's because it's not RGB - it's Y, Pr, Pb :)
All the AV pinouts I've seen mention only RGB. |
