Hello!
I'm using ATI Radeon X1900 XTX and ASUS A8R32-MVP Deluxe, on WinXP SP2 and Catalyst 6.11 (also tried 6.4 and 6.9).
Shortly: can't get TV out to work.
Little longer:
If I go to Displays manager I can see displays 1 and 2, but if I right click display 2 and choose enable, my monitor goes blank for 1 sec and then turns back as it was and display 2 remains gray/disabled.
In Displays manager screen I see a monitor icon (inside 'Main' -box), which is my VGA monitor. I also see an icon of a TV (inside 'Attached displays currently disabled' -box), which is gray. Won't let enable, drag, drop, right click --- except: I can drag this gray TV icon on top of the monitor icon above and it'll give me a button "swap devices". If I click on it, the TV turns on, but the monitor turns blank at the same time. That is the only way to get TV signal, but yet, it drops the signal from the monitor. When looking the picture thru TV, I have same options, except on the left menu bar, there's an additional category saying "TV properties 2". Tried all setting under that, nothing, just video quality, NTSC/PAL settings, etc. I can get back to monitor, by dragging the monitor icon (which is now gray) on top of the TV icon and clicking on "swap devices".
Under Avivo Video>Standard Settings, I have the Theater mode selected. Under Avivo Video>Theater Mode, I have the 'Clone mode shows overlay' selected to Theater mode
On catalyst center I have 'Force TV' on. Having that on/off does not make any difference on my situation.
I have my CRT monitor connected to the DVI Port with a VGA converter, and my TV to s-video port with s-video cable.
If I boot with new system, with TV forcing on, it boots with only TV signal on and once the Windows turns on where you select your user profile, the TV goes blank and the monitor turns on.
Sometimes (after turning options on an off) when the monitor is on, I can see the TV properties 2 -category, but when I select it, all it says is "Display device is currently disconnected or disabled". If the TV signal is on it has settings for picture quality, color, etc..
The s-video connector has (I think) 7 pins on it when regular s-video cable has 4 pins. After a long research found out that ATI uses the 7 pin system, which (should be) similar with the exception that the 3 (or is it 4) additional pins includes audio signal(s). So for that ATI claims the regular s-video cable should work just as with 4-pin connector.
Thanks !
