Hi,

Well i connected the GS via the composite in and it only came up in
BW, so connected my xbox 360 and to be honest at first glance it look
ok, but then again it seemed a distinct lack of red in any of the
images (was using it as Media Centre extender), so watched so TV and
didnt notice any red and all looked slightly drab. Shame as the
monitor was it great condition. My mate has an Amiga so was going to
take it over there and see what it looks like.

I have used a Scart cable quite happily on a few Samsung LCDs and
colours always look ok...bought a couple of cables from VintageWare

Cheers
