So it's impossible for some NTSC games to ever work with RGB scart cables?

[nk01]

I'm talking about NTSC games run through Gecko OS 1.7b on a PAL system (such as No More Heroes or Tales of Symphonia 2), ones that crash with a green screen when you try to force pal60 on them. I'm using an RGB cable, which of course leads to the infamous red image when you run the games in NTSC mode.

I know there are other "solutions" to this, I'd just like to make sure if I should bother waiting for an update to Gecko OS, or if it's basically impossible to ever do this through a clean and simple homebrew app (which I'm afraid might be true, I'm just looking for confirmation).

I'm on version 3.3 of the system menu btw. Not sure if it matters.

Unfortunately certain games are really incompatible with PAL50 and PAL60.. once the Wii is swichted to NTSC mode it unfortunately loses its ability to handle RGB cables (NTSC Wiis support S-Video output, PAL Wiis RGB - so technically in NTSC mode your Wii learns how to handle S-Video cables) and this results in that picture.

For now, no solution is known other than using Composite or Component cables (note: the same btw happens if you use S-Video cables on NTSC Wiis and play PAL games in PAL50 or PAL60 - the S-Video output will appear wrong!).

i dunno if this will help but

i have 2 wii's
one for the kids to play on and one in my room for midnight wii action when the kidlets are in bed

anyhoo i find that when i play NTSC games on my livingroom tv which is a normal crt 32" widescreen tv nothing special
can play all disks ive tryed in full colour without applying force modes like 50 or 60hz pal
however there is some slight shape distorsion as the screen seems to extend slightly taller than normal but i can play fine on this tv like this

when i use some titles on the tv upstairs in my room i can only play in B/W
Im using a RF COMPONENT cable as i only have 1 scart for that tv and it dosent matter wether i use scart or RF ADAPTER it still wont play in color but does on my tv in my downstairs

im wondering if some tvs are able to corectly display it and some arnt

perhaps there is some mode you can change to on the tv that can get the colour back

one thing i noticed on the tv downstairs is that it blinks several times when i load a game up via backup loader gamma 0.3

it dont do it with normal pal disks
perhaps my tv has some auto region select or sommit built in

quite odd for a cheap i think huh

anyways perhaps this info can be of some use to someone
just thought ild share my experiences with this problem too

thanks
