First of all please excuse my ignorance in certain areas of this question, I have read countless threads trying to compile what I ultimately want to achieve, but my brain has fried
I am building an arcade cabinet which will house a CRT TV Monitor. Arcade monitors are not available where I am, and this seems to be the best option to reproduce close to the original feel and experience of classic arcades.
I will be using a Raspberry Pi 3 running retropie, connected to an Ipac2 for all my joysticks and buttons.
My question lies in figuring out the TV Monitor.
-I have found a Sony CRT curved TV monitor which is 29", with Scart input (I am in Europe)
-Are all CRT TV Monitors 15khz? or are there some which exceed these specs? Essentially, will ANY CRT TV Monitor with a SCART input work, or are there exceptions?
-Will all TV's with SCART input register the RGB, or will some not have this option?
-I have figured my connection as Raspberry Pi > HDMI to VGA connector > VGA to SCART connector > SCART cable to SCART input on back of TV.
-Would I need to use something like soft15khz with a Raspberry Pi?
Will this setup be suitable for my needs, for playing classic arcade games only Pacman, Galaga, SHMUPS, to Street Fighter 2, Metal Slug, Marvel vs Capcom, etc... (No NES and other style games, just arcade). What I mean by that is, will the display resolution using this setup with any CRT TV Monitor using SCART be as accurate as possible to the original intended format and look of these games?
If there is any possible errors or potential problems that may arise by my intended setup, please do tell so I can read further on that particular topic: for someone getting into retro gaming from scratch there is way too much information to absorb all at once, I'm quite spread thin
