Green av2 msge on screen when tv on

make sure to set input on the TV is set to s-video.
If left on AV2 the picture is black & white.
Set to AV2S the picture is in colour. http://www.avforums.com/forums/ps2/692572-ps2-picture-black-white.html
here some troubleshooting steps to help find out what maybe wrong
1. try a different tv 2. if you have a friend with a ps2 try borrowing their cable to make sure its not the cable. 3. try your friends ps2 on your tv.

I think you are correct. The standard def Tv is just poorly set up.

Look at your manual and see what the specs are for off angle viewing. I bet that the limit is right around 30-45 degrees. Which is not unusual for older low def screens.

The fix, unfortunately, is to buy a newer unit with better specs. The nice thing is....the prices are way down.

It could be a feature as some TV's have a zoom feature, widescreen setting, picture-in-a-picture, etc. Have you consulted the user manual?

replace the RGB ic dont mesure anything just replace it then you see the result

You need to have original Sony TV remote and press Display button on it, on-screen display will disappear.

adjust the manual fine tune

Sony Wega Triniton KV-32FS100 TV

For the last week my TV has been going to a black screen for 10 seconds or so then the picture returns. It has been continual. Last night it stopped going to black screen, but now the standby light flashes 5 consecutive times and the color went haywire. A lot of red and everything that is suppose to be black is green.

I did a soft and hard reset with no success. What's wrong and is it worth fixing? Bought new in November 2002.

Thank you for your rapid response, but my tv has now been repaired by someone recommended to me by a Friend.

Kind regards

Does it do so on all tapes? It sounds like you are experiencing a tracking or tape path problem. You might try taking the top cover off, then cleaning the video head. Info is available on the 'net on how to do this. If problem remains, play a tape and see it is wandering up/down across video head. See if any of the tape guides are broken or bent, causing tape wandering. you may also have a problem in the electronics, perhaps in the servo circuitry, which has to do with careful control of tape speed, video head rotational speed, and certain other parameters. If electronics are bad, then VCR is likely a tosser, unless it is a high $ rig. Most electronics are disposable these days, unfortunately.
