I was watching a movie and got a little bored and noticed the zone could use tweaked in 2.35 AR. So I adjust the zone in R and then B and it looks pretty good so I hit memory and save it then hit the exit button on the lumagen and I don't see any menu.(lumagen) so I hit NORMAL on the sony and the screen pops up all bright green. All the tubes are lit but the green seems to be in major overdrive. I turn off the PJ, turn it back on in a minute along with the lumagen. Looks the same. BRIGHT GREEN. I had to have accidently hit some button in the dark but I don't know what. Please help, I wont sleep with my PJ down. Thanks in advance.

You didnt change it to component instead of RGB did you?

I don't even know how to check that. I have an image, a green image. Wouldn't it lose the image if it was changed ?

Are the test patterns all green too? If so, you have a fault in the set, either the neck board or the RGB input board.. or a bad tube. (unlikely)

All the test patterns are normal, black and white

OK, good! This is either a source issue, or a setting in the menu. Not an actual problem in the projector.

What's your signal path, from source to projector?

I am guessing that somehow its a menu setting. Not sure how I could have changed it but everything was working fine right up to the time I was trying to close out of the test patterns.

Can you bypass the Integra and Lumagen, go right from the Oppo to the projector. that will eliminate everything outside of the Moome card and G90 settings.

OK when I go to menu it tells me that video memory is OFF. When I check input info it says INPUT MEMORY No. 13.

I don't think my hdmi cable will reach. I could if I take apart a lot of things. I would bet a dollar its in the settings on the sony, I just don't what to check.

here is something interesting. I cant get the user mode prompt to appear. enter enter up down enter does nothing.

somehow it is in the settings screen. Also for a second while the movie was loading it came up on a blue screen with white letters and it looked perfect.( it was the pg 13 screen) Then the movie continued and it went right back to green

I am back. The grass is no longer burning. I cannot get the user mode prompt to come up. I am using pic mute right now because I am afraid my green tube will blow up. When I do all the menu colors are normal so its just with an image that there is the problem. How can I get to input memory 13 ?

So I got it into PRO mode but Enter ,Enter , Up, Down ,Enter didn't work still. Set Setting 1...... status off.....pic muting on.... inputs A B C are all RGB User mode is PRO. So that's where I am at.

I had a problem a few weeks ago that turned out to be due to the Moome card getting into the wrong mode. The solution was to press 'D' on the moome remote, making sure the moome beeped. In my situation the projector wouldn't sync properly. I have had other occasions where I had to hit 4 or 7 when I had a greenish image. I think what happened was that the moome picked up IR from some other remote that I used and put it in the wrong state.

Thanks ! I checked the moome its ok. I am pretty sure the problem is in the lumagen. I will have to wait for Craig to weigh in I guess. The only thing I know about the HDQ is how to get the test patterns up.

The genius from Chicago solved it ! I hit the number 7 on the moome remote and it went right back to flat out beautiful. Thank you so much CRAIG ROUNDS ! And thank you everyone else for your help. P.S. I put a piece of painters tape over the IR on the Moome so this shouldn't happen again. Also the enter,enter,up,down,enter works again. Who knows why. Again, THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH !
