Hey Everyone,

I'm kinda new to owning a projector like this. I got a Barco 800 several months ago off of Craigslist. A buddy of mine even took it to Curt to get it a clean bill of health. Everything was a go. But life took over and I am just now getting around to setting up the home theater. I am running into what I figure is a dumb question. A few points

- I got a Barco 800
- I have the HD Fury II
- I have it currently set up to an Xbox 360
- The Xbox is set to 1080i and RGB

The issue:
I have the xbox hooked up on input #4 and only the green tube is projecting.

Have tried:
- Using a different HDMI cable
- Adjusting the HD settings on the xbox
- On the HD Fury II, it is set to YUV

The signal doesn't seem to follow the green plug. So if I plug the green cable into the red/blue port, it does project red/blue.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

Jason

So partial update.

Was able to get the colors to come through.

However, on the HD Fury II, when I adjust the gamma almost at all, it starts to roll really bad. Any thoughts/suggestions?

Is it outputting RGB or is it outputting component? Flick that switch back over on the HD Fury 2, YUV is component.

I will look tonight if I have time.

I am pretty sure it (you mean the Xbox?) is outputting RGB.

I concur with jfrussell, had a similar issue when I first started playing with the HD Fury 2. Flick of the switch and it all came good.
Good luck with it.
