I've never been entirely happy with the picture quality since I bought the TV a couple of years ago. I suspected that the signal it's using is composite rather than RGB. So today I decided to disconnect pin 20 (composite IN) and hey presto no picture.

What do I need to do to ensure the TV uses RGB?

I have tried with several sources, STB, PVR, DVD, same result with each one.

Any thoughts very welcome - thanks.

Which socket are you using? V.Tape and AV automatically default to RGB when there but Decoder is not RGB enabled. I use the AV socket for the Sky box - I use a BV5, Avant and BV3 - all of which use the same basic chassis.

I fully understand you though - why isn't the decoder socket RGB? - which other socket would you logically use!!

To show my appreciation I would like to make a small donation to your favourite charity. Please let me know which that would be - many thanks.

I would suggest your local pub - a relaxing pint to soothe your nerves! It is a pleasure to share any small knowledge I have!

PubAid raises over £100M per year, their largest recipient is Help for Heroes. I have therefore made a small donation to H4H.

Thanks again, I really appreciate your help.
