    RSP-1068 - Horizontal banding on component output

    Recently I noticed that my RSP-1068 has developed some horizontal banding on my component output. Regardless of what component input I use, I'm getting some rather annoying banding on the output to my TV.

    I've verified it's definitely the Rotel through process of elimination, using different cables, inputs on my tv and source material, so I'm a bit miffed.

    I'm planning on upgrading to the RSP-1570 when it's available, but I was wondering if anyone had experienced anything similar. I'll have to RMA this unit when I've replaced it before I sell it, which is a bit of a pain.

    This unit was a refurbished unit from Rotel, a replacement for an older RSP-1068 that they couldn't seem to fix. Does anyone know if that means I can RMA it directly to Rotel, rather than having to go through the shop I bought it from (which I am no longer nearby)?

    Go through the setup and make sure PROGRESSIVE is turned on for any input that sends out 480p or higher. The banding sounds like when the unit tries to overlay OSD information over a 480p+ signal.

      Kevin, that's what Rotel suggested I check, and as I thought it was still set to "Yes ALL". I had made some changes to my system that I thought could cause the issue (mainly adding an APC H15), but i've tested with the Rotel & TV on AC power and it doesn't seem to make a difference.

        I had the same issue on a previous 1068 processor. It was a grounding issue within the unit. The product was replaced.

          I've noticed a hum that wasn't there before either, when I've never had ground loop issues before. I'm wondering if that's related.

            Preamp choices: RSP1068 or RSX1056 or AVR3805?
            by csuzor
            Is the better choice the RSP1068 or RSX1056 for pre-amp duty?

            I will add the RMB1066 (in bi-amp mode) or the RMB1075.
            I am upgrading from a denon1804 to drive B&W700series in 5channels only (no sub yet)

            Being budget limited, choosing the RSX1056 allows me to...

            Veneer edge banding on a rounded edge?
            by FroDaddy
            I'm looking at the price between birch laminated ply from home depot versus buying veneer to laminate a large piece of MDF, and the ply is cheaper. I've used the birch laminated ply before on an entertainment system and the results were satisfactory. I used some composite plastic edging for the entertainment...

Everything is set up properly on both my Win 7 PC and on my DVR. However, when I play an mp3 file, I get no...

            PS2 and Rotel RSP1068
            by chanlon
            Hello,

            I have purchased a Rotel RSP-1068 processor. Everything works great
            except I can't seem to get it to passthrough a component signal coming
            from my Sony PS2
            When I connect the PS2 direct to my TV using the same component cables,
            it works fine. I get audio...

            Bought the BenQ PE7800. It is crouching, batlike, on the ceiling projecting onto a 92-inch Da-Lite Model B high-contrast matte white screen.

            Sources include a Dish HD receiver feeding through a DVI-D cable, a Samsung 841 DVD progressive-scan player hooked into the PJ's component HD inputs...
