Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 (USA) videos not being showed #501

Closed SieKensou closed 6 years ago

Why the videos are not being showed (logos, intro and rest of videos)...? When they are playing, the TV put a message saying "video mode not compatible". I remember having this same issue with the first of the James Bond games, but that didn't happen if I used the original game disc through the Wii disc channel. Why does this happen in Nintendont? I don't force any video mode, just default options as always and the official Nintendo components cable.

probably outputs at a resolution your tv cant handle. not nintendont fault. Forcing videomodes does nothing to those games since they just force their wierd resolution like megaman 288p.

some games on gc outputted at wierd resoultions that some tvs dont like kinda like megaman collection. I played all james bond games on nintendont and never had any issues.

With the James Bond game, it happens in the PAL version, but not with the USA version. I have the original game PAL and it can't be problem of the TV because it works fine with the original game in the Wii disc channel, so I supose this Tony Hawk's 3 is the same problem.

i never saw anyone having issues with james bond videos not showing or tony hawks tbh well could you try using the scart pin instead of component? and try that again?

@SieKensou According to my XRGB-mini upscaler while I was using my component cable, the THPS3 FMV's output at 240p (which is shown correctly on my screen, btw), then the in-game resolution reverts to 480i. iirc, Prog-Scan does not work on this game. It's the way Neversoft made the game. Whereas in THPS4 - for example - the FMV's are in 480p.

There's a useful homebrew app called 240p Test Suite which allows you to test your TV/Monitor's resolutions and input delay.

so yeah i dont know if his tv supports 240p manny tvs dont support that nowadays.

SieKensou commented 7 years ago

I'm out of home now and I can't test with different cable. Please, don't close this issue until I can do all the pertinent tests.

carnage702 commented 6 years ago

so?

SieKensou commented 6 years ago

I still couldn't test with the other cable but I tested the game in a different TV and everything works fine, so probbably is what you said, just some incompatibility with the resolution. I guess we can't do nothing in that case, right?

carnage702 commented 6 years ago

yeah we cant do anything since the videos are on that resolution we cant change them.
