Where did he say it was just switched cables? I suggested he investigate that possibility, but I do not see where he proved (or disproved) it.
I had a slightly different set of Video cables on mine connected wrong.. I mean when I discovered it I was.... Well... Amused.
You see the AV cables to the tv
Audio in left was properly connected as was Audio In Right.
But VIDEO.. was connected in the OUTPUT collumn
I mean they were like this In the followign diagram an O is NOT CONNEGED and an X is
Video-- x 0 0 0
Audio-L 0 x 0 0
Audio-R 0 x 0 0
Ok, I used Zeros.. I moved the video cable and now it works.
