Sadly, not my wiring, it's the unit itself. After a few minutes the video out loses sync.
Turning it off to change cables fooled me, as it cooled down or whatever reversed the failure.

I feel a PayPal claim coming on. Though strangely when I look on eBay it's not due to arrive yet and hasn't been delivered.
I can't even make a claim for nearly another 3 weeks according to eBay!

Edit: Tested in the morning and it lasted about 5 or 6 minutes before degrading. Sound is fine, it's just the video that loses sync and scrolls rapidly.
