I have tried to connect the 464 to a different tv (Usually I use a LCD tv from Samsung) using the same SCART cable and on the Samsung CRT TV the image is B/W , is there anything I can do? Thanks

Is it a powered cable (e.g. you connect it into the 5v line as well)? This helps to switch the TV to RGB mode.

Does the affected TV set has a button on the remote or on the set itself to switch to RGB input?
