Just saw this on Amiga.org

Has anyone had a chance to use one of these: http://cgi.ebay.com/Arcade-RGBs-CGA-...item27aff353cc

Looks like quite a neat product and cheaper than an Indivision, thinking if it is worth picking one up.

@ami junkie

These boards pop-up hre from time to time.

most boards like these dont support true 24bit input and conversion, however this advert claims that it does have true 24bit output - I am thinking that mileage may vary on this unit.

However I am unsure how well this devices would handle interlaced screens and productivity modes (if at all).

still its only £50 ($76) posted, so it might be worth a punt or too.

I've got one of the single vga out, and I can't get it to sync.

And running an xbox 1 thru the componet input looks like crap.

Thanks guys, maybe I will stay away from it for the moment, I think I`ll wait for the scandoubler that AmigaManiac is gonna sell. Should be interesting.

Some people in Brazil bought the dual output unit and they are happy with it.

Don't know if the unit really work flawlessly in PAL modes or in greater resolutions as VGA/productivity.

Apparently the new version with two output connectors do de-interlace, but not flicker fixing.

Hmm maybe it might be a bit of hit and miss with that board, I saw some interesting options on DealExtreme though: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.17894
