CD32 TF330 RGB question...

[BivCrow]

Hello peeps,


I'm scratching my head trying to figure this out. I have a CD32 with a TF330 and Kipper riser and I'm not getting any image when I connect the Amiga Video / RGB to SCART cable and then connect it to a SCART to HDMI.



When I use my standard av cables with my av to hdmi it works fine...


I have a PAL CD32 but not sure if that even matters since I am trying to connect RGB > SCART > HDMI ... or does it?


For the record the cable and converter I am using were purchased at the following places but from what I believe they should work but aren't.


SCART to HDMI Upscaler / Converter


Agmia RGB to SCART Cable


Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Does it work with RGB to scart only on CRT or HDTV comptible with scart ?

Your SCART to HDMI converter doesn't seems to accept resolutions below 640x480p :

Input Resolution:
640x480@60Hz, 800x600@60Hz, 1024x768@60Hz,
1280x720@60Hz, 1280x1024@60Hz, 1360x768@60Hz,
1600x1200@60Hz, 1920x1080@60Hz, 480i/60Hz,
480p/60Hz, 576i/60Hz, 576p/60Hz, 720p50/60Hz,
1080i50/60Hz, 1080p23.97/24/25/50/59.94/60Hz

An OSSC will do the job

EDIT: Nvm looked around, it seems a bit pricey just to get my Amiga RGB Scart onto an hdmi tv... is there not something a little more basic and lower in price?


Forgive my ignorance but OSSC?

OSSC is worth every gold shilling. I know it’s pricey but you win in the end since it looks so much better. Not the normal everyday jaggie pixelated piece of sh*t upscaler that makes Amiga graphics look EGA that sell for a penny.

The problem is more likely that your scart to hdmi converter doesn't work with RGB. The scart standard carries RGB and composite and I suspect this converter is looking for the composite signal which isn't there from the RGB output on the Amiga.

If your looking a good budget solution get yourself one of these.

It works with everything I've thrown at it and despite what people tell you there is no noticeable input lag (I measured it at a couple of frames), if you do get lag turn off all filtering settings on your TV and select game mode. This converter should also support s-video and component all be it, it may need modified for component. S-video though is part of the scart standard.

The reason this works so well is because its just a typical decoder you'd find in any TV set with an HDMI encoder on the output rather than an LCD driver. Adrian's digital basement on youtube did a fantastic video on it. (I did one too, just not as good as Adrian's)

For sure Glen_M is right,
At this price it's possible that your converter only deals with composite.
The converter mentionned above seems to be a good compromise between the OSSC and the composite at a very good price.
