gscartsw: automatic 8:1 SCART-RGB switch

Great news! Time to stock up on some scart cables!

 

Fantastic news. Can't wait!

 

Awesome.. I believe I am in this batch, I was able to purchase and get my order in back in September.

Thanks superg!

 

I'm getting emails asking for status updates and tracking numbers, please be patient, I'm working on it.
As I've stated on the pre-order page, ~5 weeks is an estimation.
The units are here, I'm assembling and testing them before I start shipping.
I estimate to start shipping next week, everything will be shipped according to purchase date, first come first served.

 

Im hoping you have an extra, or I can get it on the next batch

 

Can't wait! Sorry to hear you're getting bugged about it. I've thought about asking a few times, but I checked older posts to get an estimated time frame on everything. Take your time! And thank you!

 

Anyone know the best setup for using the gscartsw with a PS2 and RGsB? If I have the PS2 (along with other consoles) connected to the gscart, and then the gscart connected to a BVM-D32E1WU, would everything work fine as long as I turn off Sync on the monitor when I want to play PS2? Or would I need an Extron Rxi between the PS2 and the gscart (and probably no need to disable the BVM's Sync)? Thanks

 

I plan to start shipping on Thursday-Friday, first come first served.

 

Exciting! I'm assuming I'm one of the last ones going out as I ordered a week before orders closed. How many orders did you have in this batch?

 

I'll be praying and checking this thread every day in hopes that there's an extra one

 

It's been a while since I last posted, primarily because the gscartsw (JP21 edition) has been such a wonderful transparent part of my setup. Now that I have caught up since my last post on this thread, I feel kind of sad for those like me who originated with JP21 cables. I realize if something catastrophic were to happen, I have no backup and perhaps I should have ordered 2 when I had the chance, but felt it was nicer to allow others to get one. JP21 users has been patient and unlike SCART users, there weren't as many options for switches.

To those who are still hanging on to the JP21 format, add me to the list because I'd like a backup. I am sympathetic to your missing out, as I've missed out on my share of wonderful things throughout my time. The situation forcing you to change over may not be easy (it would not have been for me due to all the cable costs), but at this time it looks like there aren't many options left.

I had to deal with chaining Selecty21s (only JP21 switch I know of) which was a mess, and the gscartsw (JP21 edition) has been a boon to me. I just want to offer my thanks again to superg for the wonderful device. I am even interested in your gcompsw even though I have a passive mechanical switch for component, but the look is stylish, I just hope there's some method to weigh it down with the forces of a few component cables attached.

 

Just curious what consoles everyone will be connecting to their new switches?
