SCART distortion issue

[J5]

I have a SCART artifact issue. wanted to ask if anyone to see if anyone has any idea whats going on. If you look at the picture, the white part of the image has these moving Black squares that move around like a banner or waving kind of pattern. The color band is just in the picture from the CRT. Its almost like the image is overdriven or something. Does this stand out to anyone as an issue you have seen before?

Has your SCART-plug all pins? When yes, all pins are plugged in the SCART Slot from your TV?
Maybe your SCART cable is damage, i prefer the SCART cable from retro gaming cables (RGC) with one-directional support and true high quality!

I think you use a HDMI to SCART adapter with worst composite… it doesn’t matter for me, you have to check the HDMI signal! Correct color space? Correct Sync?

I think some of my cables do have all the pins. The TV does not, which pins do i remove from the SCART ends? I have some RGC cables and some others, I am happy to remove pins, do you know which pins could be problematic?

 

Thank you!

I use all pins from my RGC SCART cable, there was problematic, when you remove / kill some important pins and parts of the signal… Use only “total” cables or plugs…
It supposed to be a contact problem with your pins, maybe the sync pins or pin 16 or 18 or something! (picture below!)

If you’re connecting to an OSSC, pin 16 is irrelevant, all grounds should be connected though.
