dsbauden Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Hey there, I'm looking for any informaiton on how to hook up an original INTV to an HDTV without the blips and crackles that happen every second when plugged in with a phono/coax adapter. I bought a 10dB signal amp but that didn't help either. Any help would be really appreciated. Want to have a tourney over the Christmas holiday and having a clean screen would be awesome. I have a 42" Panasonic Plasma if that helps. Thank you! Di I apologize if this is in the wrong forum. I wasn't sure where to post.

Hey there, I have the same TV and exactly the same problem... until a couple of weeks ago, when our resident techie, pimpmaul69, suggested to hook it up through an old VCR. It turns out that the RF signal needs boosting. I also tried with an RF modulator and amp with no results. The VCR worked like a charm! -dZ.

dsbauden Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 dZ Thanks for your help! I have it hooked up to a VCR but now the screen is fuzzy. At least the blipping has stopped. So just to clarify your connections... Are you using the phono/coax adapter into the INPUT of the VCR or are you using RCA plugs? Thanks!Di Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/178390-intellivision-inforesourcesfaq/page/2/#findComment-2881912 Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DZ-Jay Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I use an RCA connector with an RCA-to-COAX adaptor at the end, and hook it up to the VCR through the "Antenna IN" COAX jack. Then I connect the "Composite Video OUT" of the VCR with RCA cables to the TV. My RCA are high-quality, gold plated, shielded cables. Also, try switching the channel selector at the bottom of the Intellivision from 3 to 4 or vice versa. As pimpmaul69 explained to me, the Composite Video is what worked. -dZ.

artcloud Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I just picked up an IntelliVision Master Component and I'm having some trouble getting it to work properly too.It did not come with cables, not that big of a deal I tought. Let's dig up an old power cable & the RF-Switch that came with my NES, that'll work right? Well, as I'm experiencing now, it isn't. The fitting of the video cable stops the plug from going all the way into the back of the IntelliVision, wich is very annoying. I also tried this via my DVD/VCR Combo and then using the composite-out as mentioned above; same results.So I've been looking online and saw al kinds of stuff about modulators to covert the signal from RCA into Coax etc. etc... but then I also found these (See pictures);Just a single "Male RCA > Male IEC cable" and a "IEC female > RCA Male Adapter" (I live in the Netherlands, so I need an IEC connection)Will these work just fine? They are a lot cheaper then getting one of those modulator thingies. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/178390-intellivision-inforesourcesfaq/page/2/#findComment-3093811 Share on other sites More sharing options...
stc2009 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I use the adaptor cable (from Sweden if I recall) and it works great. Sometimes the adaptor selector can introduce interference if the connections are corroded.

AguyinarRPG Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Heya! This may not be the right place to ask this, but I didn't want to go and make an extra thread just for a couple questions. I was wondering if there's any indications as to the release dates of Intellivision games, specifically with Utopia. They have some sort of number attached to them, right? Could we use any of the relatively known dates to work out the release date of a specific game? I'm also trying to figure out the release of the Intellivision PlayCable. This site lists an issue of EGM in 1982 and shows the advertisement for it, so I have to imagine its late 1981, since all sources I have seen list it as 1981. The commercials were shot in '82 though. Anybody have a more specific date?

The individual cartridges have a number associated with them, but is that indicative of a particular timeframe?

intvnut Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Adding a link to this here: Configuration files to use with various Intellivision titles. If someone stumbles across a game that isn't in there, or a game + config that doesn't work, let me know. I know the list has a few gaps, and I will fill them as I notice them.
