No, it means there is a problem with the pod.

If in doubt, just scope the outputs and find your RGB and syncs. As stated before, invert each sync signal with an ls04, then join them together to give you composite sync. Then you can feed this to a SCART tv or a regular arcade monitor. Ignore the black and white output.
