WARNING!: This message is set to go a little AV!!! A friend of mine recently decided to go ahead and purchase a plasma screen for his AV room that I had previously discretely wired for full surround sound and provided him with speakers. Using an IT trade contact of mine we purchased a Panasonic plasma screen and set up at his home. The plasma itself only has the standard PC serial input connection, so a DC powered SCART sync cable is required in order for an RGB signal to be displayed via this connection. The problem starts in that my friend wants to watch TV on the unit but does not want to install a third SKY digi box in this room due to the added subscription expense so we used his VCR as a tuner. We have sound but no picture which would relate to the VCR putting out a composite signal and the plasma only expecting an RGB. The company I purchased the screen from are basically just box shifters to the trade and have no technical support so I contacted a company called JS Technology as they have just won an award for the specialist video interface boxes that are advertised as solving these kind of video interface problems. To my amazement I receive an email from a representative of the company (who signs his name with the prefix 'Dr.'), that I should contact the supplier of the screen as he is not able to provide support for other manufacturers products. I then sent another email stating that the supplier has no technical support and that surely as a company that offers a product which supposedly resolves the whole issue of video matching to plasma displays they can offer some advice,...the response I received was again,..."as I said, best talk with your supplier". What is it with our British mentality towards customer service?! It's all very well winning an award for a techincally proficient product but when you have absolutely no idea on how to inter-relate with prospective customers you don't deserve anything. What's also funny is that the company in question have the exact same plasma screen featured in their ads that my friend purchased, but yet they can not offer me a product fit for purpose. :mad:
