My analog A/V setup
« on: February 19, 2013, 10:20:26 AM »
Just wanted to share my gaming setup for 240p goodness.  In case anyone's interested, I put up a big thread over here:

I've kinda wondered, if I get the RGB mod for whatever game system, would that work on a VGA input?

edit:  Oh yeah, nice setup, dude  :D

Only if you have a device that accepts 15khz VGA input, and you almost certainly do not.  (True VGA is 31khz)

I finally have everything connected and easily switchable, without ever having to move around or even see any wires.

That's a dream of mine  :mrgreen:  It's an amazing setup, congratulations!

My TV and transcoder  :D

Seriously though, Deadite is right, don't expect anything below 480p to work on a CRT PC Monitor or an LCD TV or anything like that.  Also most RGB mods put out RGBS or RGB with composite video as sync, not RGBHV which most "VGA inputs" will need, hence the sync seperator in my switch box.

"True VGA" is kind of semantics though.  VGA has several meanings.  It could mean an RGBHV signal OR 640x480p@60Hz resolution OR a DB-15HD connector.

Thanks for the compliments guys!

This thing is not my style at all (way to much dusting for my tastes) but you certainly went crazy completing your plan. Good job!
