The person who used an inline resistor seems to have had different results that I did trying the same fix. I get a pulsing background on one monitor and a clear but greyscale ima...

Glad to hear I'm not the only one with this issue. I'll refrain from buying a second NABU in hopes of getting one with better composite output.

Thanks. It could be a defective component, though I think it's even more likely the NABU generates a nonstandard NTSC signal that relies on TV circuitry to resolve. Here's a video describing the out-of-spec signal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7FuUbo2Dag Based on this I fear there may be nothing...
