technika aedtr160s7 problem
 

Have just come back from a week's holiday and the picture on my Panasonic TV
is fine but on the Technika (2 months old) there is a green colour cast on
every channel. any ideas?

Regards

Sounds basic, but have you tried taking out and re-pluggging
your leads? SCART leads can be susceptible to this ..often
just needing re-seating, at either or both ends sometimes.

Failing this it could, (as an outside chance), be an unusual
hardware failure ..but that would need the diagnostic abilities
of an 'expert'.. ;))

If you acquired it from Tesco's and above advice isn't helpful
to you ..then you could try taking it back and asking if Tesco's
Customer Service can help.

You might wish to 'conveniently misplacing' the receipt if it's
only just out of warranty ..although for customer service and
brownie points, Tesco's may consider supporting you free of charge
anyway.

addendum:

Sorry, just noticed on posting that I had misread your question
as the Technika being 12 months old ..not 2 (two) months old.

If it's only two months old and re-seating the leads doesn't
work, then clearly you need to take the thing back to Tesco's
Customer Service and ask them to do the necessary..

Apologies for misreading..

Thanks for that prompt response, Bill. Something I did find that was on
"Setup\ TV Out" the setting said RGB which I assume is the default, because
I've never altered it. Anyway, when I changed it to "CVBS" the green tinge
disappeared. It may be my imagination too but the picture seemed marginally
worse, but it's hard to tell. Might be a clue there?

Just tried the Scart lead tip and when I changed output back to RGB, the
picture started bouncing from left to right, but when I shut down and
restarted, it was stable (and not green!), so, fingers crossed and thanks
again.
