Hello everyone,

my TV is the Philips 42PFL8404 which i bought ~6-7 years ago. Since then i had the same issue with some devices which didn't really bother my because i rarely used them on my TV

The problem is that every now and then (no real trigger) the screen gets inverted colors. Doesn't matter if a movie is running or it's a picture on the screen without any movement.
This happened to some devices like my laptop, a playstation and my PC once when i had another GFX card installed. So the Problem is definetly the TV not the Pine.

Why am i talking about it then on this forum???

Because there is a Fix that can be used on Radean GFX Cards. There u can go to the ATI Driver Settings and set "PC-Standard-Pixelformat RGB 4:4:4 (full RGB)" to fix this issue. And i wanted to ask if there is anything similar that can be done on the Pine64 on Linux oder Android

It's really terrible that my Pine64 finally runs smoothly with Ayufans Android image but i can't use it on my TV :/


Thanks in advance

May not able to apply, the Pine A64 board output YUV 4:2:0 instead of RGB 4:4:4. My guess what you are facing is teh RGB or YUV color conversion issue that TV determine wrongly.
I have the same issue with a Philips TV, is there a way to set Pine 64 output to RGB 4:4:4?? Don't know an android app maybe? I want to use my Pine64 to watch netflix with android app but every now and then the screen turns green....
