Do they make a vga inline picture adjuster?
« on: September 15, 2015, 02:20:20 pm »
Looking for something that can adjust the picture size with a vga signal.  Move it up/down left/right and its position on the screen/ stretching....is there such a thing

Like the options a cga to vga board has.  Only for vga into the monitor.

I know this is a silly suggestion (since I know what youre using this for) but why not use a signal converter from the atomiswave to VGA then use the converter to adjust the pic?
If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

The converter just won't work with the signal from the atomiswave.  That was my original plan but it's a no go so im looking for another device hopefully

Many of the Extron RGB processors have controls for horizontal and vertical centering. I have the Extron RGB 201 Rxi and it works very well for this. It has a VGA input and BNC outputs.

As for adjusting the size, I can't imagine there will be a solution that doesn't mangle your video signal and introduce all sorts of scaling artifacts. Better to adjust the the H and V directly size on your display if you care about image quality. Less convenient but a better result.
