Hi all,
My RGB to PAL/NTSC adapter project is ready for sale. Full and comprehensive details, including photos are on my website: http://www.amigamaniac.com I'm selling them fully assembled from AUD$30 (no connectors), for Amiga & non-Amiga applications, to AUD$33 for a fully assembled and tested unit ready to use on an Amiga - just plug it in! It outputs both Composite and S-Video. |

Hm, interesting. Might try this with my car LCD/A1200 later on, since it didn't seem to like my A600 composite.

As I expected, on my cheap 'n nasty, brand you never heard of LCD TV, it can't display nuffink from the Amiga, except in interlaced mode, which looks like total shite.

![]() I've just gotta make a couple sans connectors for kipper2k first...then I'll start hassling people that want one ![]() And completely unrelated to this beastie, our hot water heater packed it in last night. So I have not been able to shave or shower today, so I feel, look, and will probably soon smell like a hobo ![]() ![]() |

![]() So if the LCD monitor is happy with the composite out of the Amiga, it will be happy with my adapter ![]() |

Hey everyone, I'd just like to let you all know that I have one of these adapters and it works very nicely, the S-Video output is rock solid! I'm in the process of setting up a few test Amigas and TVs to take pics of, which I'll post as soon as I can.

For the price of AU$33 you cant go wrong, especially as the Aussie dollar is worse than the Canadian Dollar at the moment

Heya everyone! I have taken a few photos of the games room TV running Babylonian Twins through S-Video on my A500. Sorry about the size, but it's important to see the detail, and sorry about the angle I was on, the cord wasn;t long enough for me to sit right in front of the screen.
I'll post a link to a quick video we made once it finishes uploading to YouTube. http://home.exetel.com.au/amiga/FirstLevel.jpg http://home.exetel.com.au/amiga/TitleScreen.jpg http://home.exetel.com.au/amiga/Spear.jpg http://home.exetel.com.au/amiga/DogAttack.jpg My TVs aren't very good, so hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to borrow an LCD TV and see how it looks though that! |

Well, my silly little video finally finished uploading properly after a few tries. You'll have to excuse the way I look, it was very late at night and I don't wear makeup so try not to throw up.
Unfortunately there's just no way to show the sharpness of the video output like this, but it at least shows that there's no rolling, or dot crawl, which I find are the most annoying problems with Composite. I'll take more pics and videos soon! Here's the video - [ Show youtube player ] |

Hey everyone, I've uploaded another video, this time showing the display on an LCD TV. It's great to see such a high resolution (1376 x 536 widescreen) coming from the Amiga without the need for more expensive hardware, and it's rock solid with no interlace thanks to this LCD TV.
Take a look here - [ Show youtube player ] |

I do question the amigamaniac for new batch, and said he would make new part if there is interest from some users.
I am interested, here can express their interest and others who want this converter. |

So, that's at least 3. ![]() It's frustrating for me, because I just got my Amiga a couple of months ago (if that) and started looking right away, and apparently I missed the run by a few weeks maybe. Aarrghh. My timing!! ![]() Oh well, I'm not sure how much interest he'd need for another run, but if there's more people who missed it, and maybe some others of you who have them, but need some more (spares???).. ![]() We'll see... Fingers crossed anyway. desiv |
