Teac Dv-b800 Issue With Sbs

[bigdonk]

Folks,

Have a weird problem with Melbourne SBS SD 720x576i, and SBS HD 720x576p, when connecting to Sammy 1080P LCD LA40F71BX panel via DVI->HDMI

With the Format selected to auto, and output selected to RGB, so that there is no upscaling/downscaling from the STB out the DVI interface, there is little to no picture displayed, and little to no audio, very choppy.

Strange thing is when i select 1080i RGB ( such that the STB upscales to 1080i ) as the output format, all is good and signal strength and quality are near 100 %. PQ and audio is good.

Anyone out there using this particular STB using the DVI interface ? Does SBS work ok for you ? What format and output settings did you use ?

All other channels ok with no issues what so ever, just SBS seems to have issues with no upscaling from STB.

Have done a channel re-scan, and no change.

Any ideas ?

I have the same STB using DVI with no issues. Not much help, I know, probably best to place a call with TEAC. It could be that the signal strength is too strong. What are the strengths on the other channels?

Found the cause of my SBS/SBS HD issue, was a faulty DVI -> HDMI cable, weird cause, as all other channels A-Ok, but a new cable has definitely resolved the issue.

Now i can run the STB without upscaling/downscaling, and let the sammy decide the best way to deal with upscaling only once

Thanks for the update, good to know.
