I have a computer that I am connecting to my rear projection TV (Toshiba 57H82) using the vivo on my video card. I have the component cables from the vivo adaptor going to the TV but the picture is very red and I cannot find any settings on the computer or TV to fix this. The video card is a Radeon 9200 but I have also tried this with my 7800GT in my other computer and it does the same thing. Any help fixing this would be great.

Yes, I am using RGB and they all match from TV to computer, I also have a Wii using component cables using the same line and that works fine. I think it is something to do with the way the computer encodes it and the TV decodes but I don’t know for sure.

That makes sense, my friend has one also so I will test it with his and see how it comes out, thanks.
