Test Pattern & Firmware update

So I just tried downloading the new firmware update and the ESP part kept on having a mismatch error and asking me to re-download. It seems to have worked on about the 4th try. Not sure if thats indicative of some kind of problem or not but I just thought I should point it out! Secondly, my test pattern is only showing a solid green screen instead of all the colours. I wonder if it just won't show up properly on some TVs?

Any ideas?

Thanks!!

That's expected behaviour. The test pattern is implemented on the input signal side and was meant to test the boards in our test jig. Because the pixel clock is present, but not steady when the console is in reset, it was also visible (but garbled). For the console reset, this was replaced with a solid green screen, which indicates PS1Digital is working as expected.

I'm relieved and still confused. I did a bunch of these and they usually get the green screen but not always. The guide doesn't say what it means if you don't get the test pattern. Everything else was normal. Nothing changed after updating. Two consoles, same TV, same software, different behavior. Some consoles have the test pattern before or after the update, others have the green screen.

You have to go back to the download screen and try again.
