Re: Blurred Credits & Interactive

Is your TV CRT, LCD or Plasma? How is your STB connected? Scart or HDMI?

Re: Blurred Credits & Interactive

Is this a normal V box or a V+ box?

If it's a V+, have you got the output set to HDMI and 1080 / 1080 wide? It does make the EPG and other menus look blurred, try knocking it down to 720 / 720 wide.

Well there lies your problem. CRT...+...SCART...+...CABLE TV
is not the best connection. Scart has been around since the 70's, so try to connect through HDMI. Should solve your problems

Re: Blurred Credits & Interactive

Are you using the composite output from the STB (VCR Scart)?. If you use the TV Scart from the STB (STB set to RGB) this should improve the situation. I have a Panasonic CRT hooked up in this way with very good results.
