Cool thanks Mitch. I had perused that thread and even posted in it! But that was when I'd had the other issues. Now it clicks, and I'm certain that thread is what I need. Cheers!

Installed Longhorn's A/V mod into my 7800. Works, except the video is black & white. Any ideas?

PM sent: That B&W issue has only happened twice now. Seems that little tiny chip doesn't like boards being flexed during shipping. I thought I fixed it by shipping the mods in the stiffer packaging but that seems to not have worked. Reflowing the chip will fix it. If you can't manage to do it Deteacher then I will send a replacement for a swap. Parker
Looks like "reflowing the chip" is a fix I can attempt. Which chip and what is meant by reflowing? Just re-melting solder?
