1960maaan Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 It took me a time to get it working. Red button just gave me a small bar at the bottom of the screen after half and half screen. Never seen that before so took me a couple of goes to realise I had to press the info button for the options to pop up. The quality wasn't up to much, watchable but HD ?
