      Hi.

      The kids have a Samsung 55" LED and all the hdmi inputs just died.

      I use a RPi 3B as HTPC with LE 7.0.3 (RetroPie).

      Bought a HDMI to VGA adapter but the picture is very green.
      I have found the issue when googling but not a working answer, tried some of them.

      How is the right way to fix this?

        @sabelstrom if it's green then my bet is either the adapter or VGA cable is iffy. Used to have old VGA leads in work go dodgy when the wiring was bad and we'd end up with pink hue on the picture. Probably the same here.

            ​Solved. Bad VGA cable.
