Now, finally I found another image from the retropie facebook grp... tried it and BAM, no more color problems!!! Wth?
Guess I need to compare the configs since this last one was pre-configured for crt.
Great, many thanks for the answer! :D I am going to hook up my RPi with HDMI -> VGA and VGA -> Scart so I got scared as I already ordered proper adapters and haven't even thought about it :P
I will try to give some update as soon as I got some time to test it (it would need additional RPi settings to be changed so probably it will take me some time).
