Good day all, First I looked to see if there was a thread on this already and did not find one so sorry if this is a repeat.... I have made a Supergun back in the mid 90's and at that time I used my Amiga monitor as the viewing source. I wired the supergun to be a 9 pin RGB for that monitor. I would like to now use the VGA that is now on the LCD TV's. I was given a link to a site long ago but have lost it through random PC rebuilds. Can anyone point me to the right source that will allow me to get the right adaptor? Thanks in advance! 9 pin female in the connection on my supergun So I think ill need a 9pin male to 15 pin male adaptor. Again it is RGB to VGA I am looking for.
Most LCD TVs with VGA ports on them will not support RGB at 15Khz and even if it does you are unlikely to get a statisfactory output as arcade boards do not output a signal that the monitor is going to like. Personally I would attempt to find a CRT RGB compatable monitor as you will have more adjustment over the picture, it will tollerate the signal better and it will look better.
Absolutely. Unless you're going to upscan (expensive to do right), then either use the SCART socket if you're in the UK, build an RGB to s-video adapter or get hold of another RGB monitor.
I would just get one of those RGB to Component converters from eBay. Works sweet for RGB consoles and pretty much every new TV I have seen has those inputs.
They are fantastic on Consoles but it is very hit and miss on arcade boards, most of the time the picture does look crap or it fails to sync correctly.
