Sony Wega Problem
Hello all,
Newbie here with a small problem looking for some advice. I was at Goodwill the other night and saw this Sony Wega (KV-32HS420). http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-...ls#/manualsTab It was only $25 so I bought it and took it home to replace my other CRT because the screen is tilted and I can't figure out how to correct it. I'm using a SCART to Component converter for my Sega and it looks great on the old tv but not so on the one i just bought. After some research, it looks as though the new one I bought is an HD CRT and not SD. It's lowest resolution is 480i and the Sega's highest is 240i (i think). Is there anyway to fix this or did I just waste $25? Any help from you technical superstars out there would be stupendously appreciated |

Hey, welcome to the forum. As I had stated on the other forum, that's a high scan TV, and the SEGA's 240p output, will be upscanned to something like 480p. That won't cause the tilt though.
Hopefully someone here can chime in, if there's a service menu mode that has a rotation adjustment to fix the geometry, or if need be, a yoke rotation (though I hope not). |

If the Sony is working right it will give a better pix than
anything new IMHO. That was prob. the best CRT TV as far as pix goes ever built. I never ran a game on the one I had so cant imagine why it looks bad. Try it on a regular TV like cable etc & see how it looks. The sets did have a chronic problem with the power supply but nothing to do with the pix. Your old set probably just has a twisted yoke & we can get you through that easily. A few do have tilt or rotation adjustments in the service menu BUT its not normal for a set to drift out. Usually its a bad part or the data got corrupted by static etc. 73 Zeno |

settings are model dependent & must be set to a certain number. So either that data got corrupted OR something is failing & you made it look OK again. BTW be VERY careful in the service menu, ALWAYS write down the numbers you change so you can go back. 73 Zeno |
