Question 1

There is no NTSC/PAL switch and the screen flickers so fast that you cannot see anything. How do I fix this?

Accepted Answer

You're not alone bro. This product is bogus. I bought TWO of these boxes and they didn't have the switch. Try your luck in returning it. It wasn't feasible for me since i live outside of the US. My advice is to pay the extra and get this.  http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003BVVYSM?cache=44c013a54ecc8ec6ab0990f24d3f29c3&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70#ref=mp_s_a_1_1&qid=1393109121&sr=8-1Works perfectly.

Question 2

I got this device and it seems to only display green and blue colors, the red color is not coming through, is there a recommended fix for this?

Accepted Answer

The product you have received may be defective.  You may want to contact the seller for further technical support if the product was purchased from SF Planet please email us as CS2@sfplanet.com.

Question 3

Does this support 320x240 and ultrawide modes like 1920x240? I also need it to overscan (not shrink/scale the image).

Accepted Answer

There are several of these nearly-identical units on Amazon from different suppliers, but I have found slight differences between them. One of these variations is the supported resolutions. Many of the suppliers do not specify the supported resolutions (some don't even know), but it's worth asking before purchase. In general, the supported resolutions match common resolutions of old CRT televisions. I have not found any in this form factor that support anything higher than 1024x768, and many only go as high as 800x600. The resolutions of most televisions (even many called Hi-Def) are considerably lower than computer monitors, and even 1024x768 is illegible on anything except very large televisions. It is highly likely, however, that the 320x240 resolution is supported by the device you're viewing, as that is a common TV-compatible resolution and all the ones I've researched and bought have supported it. Just remember, the devices' specifications vary considerably despite looking identical or even being in the same Amazon listing. One time, I got two devices with different specs from the same seller. Why am I going through so many of these devices, you ask? They seem to burn out after a couple months of use. I've gotten much more expensive ones that did the same, so I keep buying the cheap ones. This frustrating circumstance has given me a lot of experience with units that look identical, are claimed to be identical, but offer different choices and specs when turned on.

Question 4

If I am using S-Video instead of RCA on the tv, do I still need to get a separate cable for sound?  a 3.5 to RCA?

Accepted Answer

According to a quick google search, S-video does not carry audio, so yes, you'll need a separate cable for the audio. Good luck.
