INI setting for a HDMI>Composite cable

Unread post by Bouboule69 »

Hey everyone

What would be the correct INI setting for using a cheap HDMI > Composite cable for a PAL crt tv?
I've been trying to use one with no luck and I'm not too sure what to do with the setting.

What kind of issues are you seeing?
What composite cable did you buy?

In theory I'd use:
direct_video=1
composite_sync=1

I'm not sure if those can both play together well, as direct_video is really meant for the HDMI to VGA adapters that people recommend. But it's worth trying.
