Title: Problem using Video extender for PC->TV.
Post by: GatorDeb on February 06, 2008, 02:51:35 PM

Here's my set up:

I have a PC audio to red/white RCA and a VGA/composite video (yellow plug) adapter.  I plug the video and audio RCAs to the sender, and then hook up the receiver to the TV.  When I go to that input, I hear a crackling noise and no video.  Turning off the sender makes the noise go away, so I have it on the right input.

Help?

Thanks! :D

1st step is make sure both the sender and receiver are on the same channel (A through D). Try repositioning the sender-receiver units, make sure the transmission path is as direct, and object free as possible.
