Could you test something for me?

Hi! I've implemented tv out in my game - shoot4fun,but I don't have my composite cable yet.If anyone has Slim with composite cable,please test my game and tell me if it runs on tv,photo of it would be nice :D Download it here:

Unpack it to Shoot4Fun folder in PSP/GAME/
Game will auto-switch to tv mode when you plug in composite cable when in main menu,not anywhere else! Also,the game should hang if you remove it during play-I will fix it when I will get my own cable.Thanks :D

I forgot: if it's run on slim without tv cable,it will look really bad(screen will be doubled,I forgot to add cable check),on phat psp it runs normally.

If you add code to make the mode component interlace (functionally equivalent to composite mode), I can test that for you as I have a slim hooked to an HDTV with the component cable right here beside me. :)

It's already done - my program will interlace video out no matter what cable you use.I just asked for testing it with composite cable as I'm geting one soon.

Err - the game posted does NOT work with the component cable. It also doesn't exit from the Home button.

No problem. Once you have something, I'd be happy to try it again. :)

Almost fixed,there was small mistake in code,but now it switches to tv mode fine.But there is another problem - when switched to tv,the screen is flickering very much,and display is cloned 4 times(like 4 main menus on one screen).Can you take a look at it?New version is here:

Thanks :D

Yeah, it finds the cable now, but the display is whacked. Remember, the every other line goes to base, and the others go to base + 262 * linewidth, where linewidth is 768 * bytePerPixel... unless you set the linewidth to 1024 like in the original example.
