Component Cable for Sony Trinitron + ini Settings

Unread post by pbsk8 »

What brand do you recommend for a component cable to use with mister on a sony trinitron 21'?

The model is a sony wega KV21FV210.

It would be connected to the vga i nthe mister board, right? Also, what do I have to change in mister.ini file?

I use this cable from Monoprice. It seems to work well on my Trinitron.

You will need to set vga_sog=1 in the ini file if you have an I/O board that is version 6.0 or newer. The SOG switch for the I/O board will also need to be in the correct position.

my board is version 5 if I remember correct, because I bought it in the end of 2020. Still need to do this change?

When I turn on the mister the screen gets pink and then change to correct color.

Also my ini screen shows these resolutions, is it alright?

You don't need to add the vga_sog ini line for a version 5 board. The startup screen does have a pink tint to it at first, but then becomes normal after a short time like you mentioned. The output looks good to me in the photo you provided. :)

Maybe some test with 240p test? Dont know what is does indeed to help with calibration.

I guess the result is fine so far.
