A1200T with s-video converter problem

[Aminator]

I have made an amiga rgb to s-video converter because i want to be able to run programs that use native amiga resolutions thru a tv tuner card.
The problem is that i only get black and white picture. The converter also has a composite out and i can get color thru that but the picture quality is worse.



I'm using pinnacle studio pctv tuner card and my amiga is a pal system and so is the converter. I tried to capture the amiga video to my pc with one of those usb capture devices and i can get color there. I've tried using supertv and the mediator tv programs but it makes no difference.

To extrapolate the luma and chroma for SVIDEO, you need an extra step, as they’re NOT available on the Amiga’s 23Pin connector. A company in Britain makes RGB to SVIDEO converter boxes (upwards of 50 euros I believe) or…you can buy an A1200 SVIDEO conversion PCB on eBay for about 30 euros and for it in the RF modulator slot.

I do have a converter and i manage to get a color picture on my pc with the usb capture device, so i know that the converter is working.

I made the adapter according to this
