|
|
I am trying to hook up either a PS4 slim or an Apple TV HD (2015) to the projector using an HDFury 2.
Right now I am getting no video at all. I have tried both A & B inputs on the projector. Switching the PS4 to 1080i and the Apple TV to 720p.
The HDFury 2 has a blue light when a source is plugged into it. I am using a power supply for the fury.
Am I doing something wrong? Will these components not work together? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Make sure your HDFury2 is set to RGB mode. You need to use all 5 RGBHV wires. Don't use YUV.

Thanks for the response Kal!
The HDFury 2 I purchased only came with an RGB cable. Is this incorrect?
PS4 is set to 1080i @ 60hz

That's not an RGB cable. That's a 3 wire component (YUV/YPbPr) cable. TRGB signals require 5 wires to do RGBHV (sometimes they can do it in 4 if they have sync on green). You can't do RGB with 3 cables.
There appears to be some writing on some of the BNCs that say Y / Pb / Pr so the Sony D50 supports component it would seem. No idea how well it does or at what resolutions/refresh rates but most CRT projectors prefer RGBHV. You'll have to check the manual and see what the various settings need to be set to if you wish to use YUV out of the HDfury2.
Cheers,
Kal

Ahhhhh. Well that would explain it. I was able to get a green video by changing the input in settings to RGB. Component wouldn't work at all. I guess i'll order a new cable that is RGBHV compatible. Would this work, if I also use a female to female VGA converter to attach it to the HDFury?

ENTER, ENTER, UP, DOWN ENTER (iirc) on the remote to get into the service mode of the D50, (make sure display is ON)
Change Input 1 to YPbPr/Componenet
Set your sources to 1080i
720P should work but pushes the little D50 harder.
