Video problems with B&O MX6000

6 replies

I just bought a used MX6000 which was tested working before.

I attached 2 video games consoles (nintendo64 and snes) both to av-1 and av-2. Both cables are AV-cables, one is chinch for which I got an adapter to scart, the other cable ends is directly a scart cable.

I set the settings to:

AV-1: V-Tape 1

AV-2: V-Tape 2

S-VHS: OFF

Powerlink: OFF

 

Problem is, the sound works, the video is really distorted, just like a decoded video signal you can barely recognize whats on the screen, most of the time its just flickering.

Anybody know that to do? I can post a video if that helps.

I assume you have tried this, but the scart sockets of the MX series can be a little tricky. Try to push inwards and gently wiggle the scart plugs whilst there are connected and the consoles are on

Hey, I did try this - no success.

Might it be possible that something was damaged during transfer? I was really careful, plus I have an image its just distorted. In TV- Mode it shows the default flickering.

Hello,

Maybe a problem with Hsync, try menu 0 0 go and then try to change the value for Hsync

If it doesn't work, I suppose you'll have to buy a real scart cable with RGB

How do I get to this menu with the beolink 1000?

 

The "play" button is the go button on the BeoLink 1000. Try to type this: menu, 0, 0, play and see if it works
