Indeedy thts the one I have... ITS FANTASTIC! better than a SD/FF anyday!!!

I think there might be a way to mod-them internall to accept a direct RGB signal, instead of going SVideo or Composite.. when i get some pennies / pocket money from the wifie i will buy another and see what modding i can do me thinks

So this CRT / TFT Tuner Device and this VGA to S-Video Adaptor and finally a RGB to VGA Adaptor would give you the best possible picture on a PC monitor?

Do you lose anything by going to from RGB to S-Video?

@NovaCoder

CRT / TFT Tuner Device (YEPO!!!!)

hmmm VGA to SVIDEO..... errr no afraid it wont work, incorrect signals...

hmm RGB to VGA Adapter will ONLY work in the RARE case that you have a PC monitor that will sync to 15Khz

by far the best bet at the moment is to have a 15Khz RGB output of the amiga to SVideo (working on that LOL) and then the SVideo output sent to the CRT / TFT tuner box.

I believe there is a way to mod these units simply to take an RGB signal. I will look into this more when the wifie lets me have some more pocket money so i can buy a spare one

@NovaCoder

I most certainly will

in the mean time, one could use composite with the crt/tft tuner device
