Coupled with a Harmony cart and it's been great. --- End quote --- Heh, I have a yard sale dirtpile rescue 2600 I repaired recently sitting on my workbench with a composite/svid modchip waiting to be installed. I probably should have just gone with the regular composite. Much quicker mod and not many TVs have S vid anymore. |

I will say the mod has made it easy to hook it up to any new TV, but the caveat is that it handles LCDs differently than it does CRTs. If your TV does a lot of built-in processing, you may need a fidget with settings to get it to look better. You're not going to have some magically beautiful picture of the first time you plug it in, especially if your TV does a lot of picture processing and does things like eliminate flicker.

Other chips might be different. Really, I just want to bypass the RF modulator. I'm not looking for a magical RGB pixel perfect image of a square chasing a rhombus. ;D |

Only good use of a 2600 these days... |
