|

Hi everyone, feel a bit silly for posting this problem but I have tried everything (including downloading the manual already).
I have a working SVP-350 projector and mainly used it for my Playstation and to watch DVD's (it's used in a dry basement).
All was well until I one day tried to hook up an old American laptop I had to it (Laptop was NTSC and loaded with over a 1,000 arcades roms / MAME emulator project I was starting on).
Well I guess I got to the correct menus and pressed something to make the screen go to the wrong screen format and now alas I am well and truly lost... (there is no clear menu to work from, just a no signal screen or a wrong format picture to view)
I have tried everything and thought I would try one of you expert type chaps...
If I play a DVD now, the picture is all distorted but you can make out that what the DVD is playing (stuck on the wrong region format...).
Help, I'm pretty sure this projector is still alive and kicking, just at the point where it's going to be thrown down the recycle shoot... help!

The Selco 350 is 576i only. How do you have everything connected?

I think he's right, it has a multiformat decoder in it, and it's probably stuck on NTSC.
No idea how to get it back to PAL or SECAM though, sorry! Should be available via the remote though.

Have you tried chancing pal back from menu?

If picture and menu is so distorted that you can't, maybe removing sources signal cable from projector help.
You can also try to delete all blocks that have ntsc from memory manager. (page 33)
If these doesn't help, 1031 have installed and repaired many Seleco models, maybe he can help...
