screen or an out of range error message when I play a DVD.
You need to change a setting in your PS3: In addition to setting up the HDMI resolution
on the PS3 as outlined above, you also have to go under the Blu-ray playback settings
and adjust the DVD upscale feature because by default it will also be 1080p. Another
hint: When you first connect an HDfury device to the PS3 the PS3 will ask: "A new
HDMI device has been detected, do you want to use it?" Answer 'YES' only if your TV is
1080p capable. Otherwise answer 'NO', and you will be presented with another screen
where you will be able to change the resolution settings and set them manually to
whatever your TV supports.
My picture is blank when I play back Blu-ray discs but not when I play DVDs.
What's going on?
Blu-ray discs are natively 1080p/24Hz. You likely have your Blu-ray player set to 24Hz
or "Automatic" frame rate output so that it is outputting a 24 Hz (fps) signal. Most
displays that do not have HDMI inputs do not work at 24 Hz so you need to turn this off.
Either set your Blu-ray player to 50 or 60Hz or set 'Automatic Frame Rate' to off. See
your Blu-ray player manual.
My Sony G90 CRT projector looks funny when I use the HDfury2.
Go into the G90 service menu "Input Setting" with the fury installed and set the "Clamp"
to HP or H/C from auto. This should straighten out the picture if it is varying in
brightness and getting weird bands of dark as scenes change.
My screen is all pink/purple or has weird colours on it. What's wrong?
There is a switch on the side of the HDfury2 for selecting RGB or YUV (component)
video output. Flick the switch on the side back and forth once or twice. It may have
gotten stuck in between the RGB and YUV (component) modes. You may also be in the
wrong mode for your TV. If you're using the component breakout cable and have it
plugged into the Y/Pb/Pr component input on your TV you must set the switch to YUV
(component). If you're using the RED, GREEN, or BLUE RGB cable then you must set
the switch to RGB.
Image Shifting
Will the HDfury2 shift the image to the left or cropped (cut off) in any way like
some other converters?
The HDfury2 includes advanced features to ensure that the image stays perfectly
centered when component (Y/Pb/Pr) output mode is used. In RGB (VGA) output mode
the image is passed directly through so make sure your display has image shifting
controls if RGB is to be used. If you require image centering in RBG mode consider the
HDfury3. The HDfury3 adds a new feature to allow for manual centering of the image
when RGB output mode is used.
Does the HDfury2 automatically center the image?
In component (Y/Pb/Pr) output mode the HDfury2 always automatically centers the
image. Nothing else needs to be done. The HDfury2 does not offer image centering in
