Shift838 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 I have been using the GBS8200 along with my VGAGBS Genie unit to run my Geneve through the VGA port on my 910mp. I decided to try something on the SCART, but using my Scart-Genie 9640 or a standard cable with only Pots on Csync, R, G, B like I have done before shows no picture. On another SCART monitor it works. So I am thinking there is something with the 910mp SCART interface. does anyone know what to look for? I have never cracked this thing open, so i'm not sure if there is a SCART controller board separate from the main board. It does see the signal, as when I power the Geneve up the screen goes from blue to black immediately. I have verified I am getting 2 volts on pin#16 to put the monitor into RGB mode as well.

+FarmerPotato Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 One of my 910MP shows only solid black on VGA input (I have not tested SCART yet). I opened it up and found a leaked cap on the main board. However, after replacing that, it's the same, and I don't know where to go from here. I think it is just one main board, a power board, and tuner module. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shift838 Posted August 30, 2019 Author Share Posted August 30, 2019 i'll probably be cracking mine open soon. I have a 910mp cap replacement kit to recap. maybe there is something blown in there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a 910mp cap replacement kit to recap. maybe there is something blown in there... I ordered a 910mp cap kit from eBay. It was a set of the big power caps, not the problem ones. The 910MP main board has surface mount caps. It uses lots of: Aluminum electrolytic, SMD, mfg part number: 1.0uF 50V EMVY500ADA1R0MD55G 3.3uF 50V EMVY500ADA3R3MD55G 10uF 16V EMVY160ADA100MD55G 100uF 16V EMZR160ARA101ME61G 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+InsaneMultitasker Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Have you confirmed overall continuity? My old adapter had a wire break free inside the plastic insulator so what looked good visually was not a complete circuit. If the 2v is coming from the Geneve or scart genie, the monitor may simply be detecting the mode selection versus actually seeing the video signal. (Nevermind - I just realized you said you tested the scart genie with another SCART monitor) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
