The LVDS-07G user's guide has pictures that use the channel two wiring. I rewired for channel two, but I see the same problem. I probed the PANEL jumper block and determined the TVD4/DVPOD4 and TVD5/DVPOD5 positions. The TVD5 modified the colors (for DVI), but they were still corrupted.

I have submitted a request to the VIA EPIA technical forums. We'll see what they can do. The EPIA/VIA documents are very lacking!

In my recent Googling, I came across Kontron. These guys are serious about systems solutions. They include panel kits with supported LCD list.

It comes down to cost and time. I may just buy an external LCD controller, such as the ALR-1400, and sell my custom LVDS cabling. An external LCD controller would also provide auxiliary support for a second video source (i.e. back-up camera). In the end, I just want something that works with this panel!
