I have the same cable from retro accessories and it did not work with my setup either. I removed the sync stripper from the cable and my consoles started working.

I'm still having flickering issues with the KSC.

Any suggestions? Should I dump these things and try some other switches?

Well, replaced my KSC's with a Shinybow, flickering gone.

I still don't think it's a problem with the KSC's, and probably a cable issue.

I had no flickering issues with the Keene, but I got a wobble effect with the Shinybow on the Megadrive and the Amiga.

SCART really does suck at times.

Yeah I saw that on your site (Great site BTW.)

I don't have a Genesis/MD yet, but will soon, if Scart gives it trouble I'll just do S-Video into the XRGB Mini, good enough at this point. :mrgreen:

Thanks :mrgreen:

Maybe your MD will work just fine with your Keene, but I guess then you'd need a switch to switch between your switches (actually that's what I do :roll: )

I have a ridiculous amount of switches actually, HDMI switch, Scart Switch, composite switch, component switch...

it's crazy.
