Subject: Picture distortion occurs when connected to
Star Choice (HDD-201) satellite receiver.
Date: December 6, 2000
Symptom:
(132X) Topside of the picture is distorted in 1080i/480p when connected to Star Choice
satellite receiver into the projection TV’s Video 5 input. This symptom will only occur
in a component Y, Pb, Pr configuration.
Cause: The HDD201 has non-standard sync pulses on the Y output signal during the vertical
blanking time. These pulses effect the TV’s video processing resulting in picture
distortions.
Solution: For both Y, Pb, Pr and RGB connection configurations, a separate H & V Sync
connection cable must be used between the satellite receiver and the video 5 input on
the TV. In order to correct this symptom, a standard type RCA audio patch cable may
be used. (See photos below.)
NOTE: The Star Choice (HDD-201) satellite receiver is designed to be sold and used in
Canada only. Therfore this problem should not be seen in the USA.
