This may be part of the problem. What is the video resolution that you are trying to play?

Was this a "HQ" video or the standard definition video?

This is due to the fact that they are using a composite video signal which is limited to 480i. Colors will be washed out and the picture may appear murky.

Try encoding the video at a lower resolution.

When I get home if I can remember?

Really the only thing that the TV out does good is show pictures on a standard definition TV.
I have not used mine in a while. I get it out and do some more tests.

Are you running the stock ROM or a Custom ROM?
