+1; Where did you find the new, as I was unable to find anything specific?
Great, anyway...at last, probably C200' worst downside concerning picture quality will be resolved

RGB output - is only one of several troubles. PCH also bad output for interlace media. In details - http://www.networkedmediatank.com/showthread.php?tid=51402

This would be awesome because this will bring the C200 in a different league! I can easily measure a difference between RGB and YcBcr on my Lumagen!!!

Great to hear, when will this happen?

Quote:Exactly! i have a Lumagen, too, and YcBcr is the way to go for a crystal clear picture and colours.
Hope it wil happen soon but i have a bad feeling since it seems that software updates for the c200 have been slowed down too much! I can't see nothing yet on the "beta firmware - see what's being tested" thread.
The sooner, the better. Fingers crossed!

The c-200 can be set to the wrong output so try this.
Quick TV Mode Settings
For quick setup of the output video mode, please press the “TV Mode” key,
wait 1 second, then press one of the numeric keys, as below:
TV Mode + 0 = Auto TV mode
TV Mode + 1 = Component/Composite NTSC 480i
TV Mode + 2 = Component/Composite PAL 576i
TV Mode + 3 = reserved
TV Mode + 4 = Component 720p60
TV Mode + 5 = Component 1080i60
TV Mode + 6 = Component 1080p60
TV Mode + 7 = HDMI 720p60
TV Mode + 8 = HDMI 1080i60
TV Mode + 9 = HDMI 1080p60
TV Mode + CAPS/NUM = Toggles between 50Hz and 60Hz
It may take a couple off seconds before the output displays on the start screen.
If after 115 sec there is no picture then try the next tvmode + number.

Note if using TV Mode + 0 = Auto TV mode and you do get picture go in to the settings and change from auto to 1080p or 720p or whatever you want to use.
Auto should only be used as a last resort.

If you can´t get it to work on any setting above do the c-200 work on any other tv?
If yes does it work with the same cable on the working tv?
Does the c-200 works with any other HDMI cable (shorter)?
Do the 5m cable work on any other device dvd,bluray,htpc,tv,etc?

You could also try to switch the cable around (the end that was in the tv now goes in the pch) atleast it don´t hurt trying.
At 5m+ lenght there is not unusal for HDMI cables to have trouble.

If nothing works try the component (the 3 red,gren,blue rca) and as a very last resort composite cable (the yellow rca).
And use tvmode + numbers for the right outputs used.

For HDMI i have the recommend settings for EU:

Video Output: 1080p/50
Frameratesync: 24p/NTSC

no oversan and no intelligent frame creation

But no image, only a black screen, at the moment I'm using the composite cable and no problem there:

1080i 60hz

many thanks...


but no problem i'm using

Well the only option left seems to try the pch on a diffrent tv.
I would say that either the hdmi output on the pch is broken or the hdmi input on the tv is broken.
Have you tried any other hdmi device (dvd,bluray,etc) on the tv?
If yes did it work?
If no can you borrow some from a freind,family to test?
Have you tried all the hdmi inputs on the tv (some can be bad and others work)?
Can you take the pch to a friend,familys tv and test to see if it works?

Or as a last resort return,repair,exchange the pch.

Or do as geekuix said try with a cable that you are 100% sure that it works (used,tested on other gears).
