I bouht a mini snes to play ntsc snes games last week and I got it yesterday. I can play games on my tv but the screen slightly flickers like a stroboscope (It's a PAL tv). I'm using Component video to connect to my tv. I also tried using an RF modulator but all I get is a B&W picture. My tv should be able to receive 60Hz signals cause it's not an very cheap one. It's a Philips Flat TV so normally there shouldn't be any problems. I might try using RGB or S-Video but I don't have the cables to connect it to my Snes. I really want to get this right cause I'm not gonna built a portable out off it if I can't even play it on my tv.

I'd say look at the A/V and/or import mods on gamesx.com.. One should be what you need to get the system running properly on a PAL tv.

go with the RGB Connection

Since it is a 100% PAL accepted video standard, it shouls work

Now the 50Hz 60Hz thing is the real trouble consult the hacks and conversion tables and see what you get

The weirdest thing happened today... I turned on my snes (it was connected in just the same way since 2 days ago) and the picture was perfect! My theorethical knowledge of video signals is tottaly wasted. How is it possible that it didn't work 2 days ago and now it does?

That's what we call a miracle.
