GCVideo issues (signal drops, no signal on boot)

Post by Beubeu »

Hi everybody,

I finally got around installing the GCVideo Pluto IIx board I bought years ago. I updated it to the latest release to date (3.0d), and got it to work, not without issues though. I am hoping someone here will be able to help me :)

The first issue I’m facing is that the Pluto board won’t output a signal if my HDMI cable is plugged in before booting the console up. When the cable is connected upon boot, LED 29 give me a solid light, and I get no signal. If there is no cable upon boot, LEDs 28 and 29 each blink at different speeds, and then connecting the HDMI cable will get me a signal.

The second issue is that the signal will drop while playing, more and more frequently as time goes. It might drop once after 5 minutes of playing, then 2, then 1, until the image no longer appears.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Regards
