gscartsw: automatic 8:1 SCART-RGB switch

Hi Superg,

I live in belgium and would like one of these, is it still possible?

Such great design, it looks like a "Scart flight deck ship" ! !

Gotta feeling its expenses will hit the roof with shipping but still curious as this seems very well made

Please drop me a note!

thanks

 

Read the first post in the thread, please.

FYI I think the JP21 versions are still available, but it's a waiting game for the Euro ones. Subscribe, wait and hope you get one in the next batch he releases!

 

Nope, he already made the order for JP21 units: http://assemblergames.com/l/threads...-1-scart-rgb-switch.52513/page-69#post-895816

 

I stand corrected, thanks! I missed some updates, clearly. Weird, because I am subbed. Hm.

 

Hi SuperG,

I would like to order one then, a euro scart version please.
I have recently bought a HAMA AV selector 100S, it has 3 scart inputs and 1 scart out, i am using RGBS in scart to BNC to my PVM but for some reason it does not detect/pass-on the sync (pin 20 on the scarts) ..i hope your switcher will have no problem with that.

 

Subscribe to this thread. He will post when the next round is available. They are not available right now.

They sell out very quickly so it's just a matter of waiting and hope you get lucky!

 

SCART update:
I've finished testing all the units and soldered all the LEDs. Only 3% of units require some work, the rest are perfect. Half of M2.5 screws are here, the other half will arrive next week. Starting from Tuesday I am assembling the units and start shipping.

 

Thats great news!

 

Can't wait!

 

Hi Superg,

I found the issue with my 3 scart unit ( Hama 1V-100S), it works fine now, so for now i will not be needing hhe gscartsw anymore.
So please ignore my previous request for one ;-)

 

Are the two outputs on this switch capable of outputting simultaneously to two monitors? If i use my scart break out for BNC and get DVI->BNC breakout (or i guess, DVI to scart to bnc break out) can i send the same signal to two monitors?

Thanks a load!

 

The answer to your question is in the first post

 

ack. Thanks for your answer. I read the first post 3 times, but skipped it over somehow Its good to know that its supported.

 

Sorry for bringing this back up, but I couldn't find an answer...

But just to clarify, when switched to HV sync, If I get a VGA to component converter, would that work on my CRT?

 

It depends on your VGA to component converter and on your CRT. The switch outputs standard HV sync when in VGA mode, that's all I can tell.

 

Thanks for the reply! I'll have to look for some converters.

 

Updates
SCART: all screws are here but I've just found out that M3 ones are 1mm longer than needed (those 6 top edge screws) - I've ordered slightly shorter ones. This is 2-3 day delay. I'm assembling all I can at the moment. Probably will start shipping on a weekend.

JP21: got an email from my manufacturer that PCBs are fabricated.

 

good stuff. Hopefully only a couple of weeks to wait now

 

I shipped some International orders today, and packed a lot of units for the US. Will be updating tracking numbers shortly (paypal).
The local units will be dropped off on Monday, shipping labels will be created today. All orders are processed in the order I've got them.

 

Does this mean we can expect the surplus to go on sale soon?
