I’ve tried another 3 sets with one of mine, line hold is rock solid for a good range of the control, the vertical jitter is present on all of the sets I’ve tried so far, an Ekco TU211, T161, and a Sony Tv 9-90. Maybe we’re just being too critical about the jitter? I get the same jitter on 625 line sets when using the Raspberry Pi, or the menu from some freeview boxes, I just thought it was tvs having a bit of a dislike to displaying thin horizontal lines!

I’m happy with both of mine, I was actually surprised they both worked first time! Picture quality with them is excellent.

One slight thing I’ve noticed with the one with V05 firmware is the LED isn’t doing much, it glows very faintly, on the other one with V02 on it the LED flashes, is it supposed to do a bit more than glow?

Regards
Lloyd
