rossi_1983 Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Got sky installed on friday, and just turned my wii on for the first time since, and the picture is scrambled. Tried all the connections and they are fine, but the picture is fuzzy and has constant lines running down the screen Anyone had a similar problem, or got an idea how to fix it?

Guest S.U.S.S. Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Not sure but could the tv be running at 60Htz? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossi_1983 Posted July 6, 2008 Author Share Posted July 6, 2008 Not sure but could the tv be running at 60Htz? Would changing it affect the sky picture, or would it just be a case of switching it everytime I want to play the wii? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest S.U.S.S. Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 depends on ur tv, if you can set it to auto it will detect the input and change accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 60 picture was slightly more scrambled. The wii picture is faded as well, so the tv picture is visible through it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig-Section Z Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 I assume each is using a different scart socket on the tv?? Also make sure your sky box is off (put it on standby) just to rule that out as well..... Basically if both are on and going to the same input (via scart or red/white/yellow) it will confuse the tv....... Try moving ur sky to a different scart as well....

Sky uses a scart, but the Wii is connected using component cable to front of tv. Have tried unplugging sky, but it was still the same. It isn't the sky picture coming through behind it, but the normal tv channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yip, have tried flicking through every possible channel output, and the best I get is the faded picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
