GreenAntz RGB to component transcoder
Ond:
I already have a Retrotek VGACTV1 VGA to Component transcoder (which I don't think are available any longer) but will consider picking up one of these anyway to compare features and performance. Anything that allows quality utilization of old CRT tech in our hobby has real value. Thanks for the work you guys have put in to this.

Thanks Ond :D
I was inspired the other day to do some latency tests with the oscilloscope, comparing inputs to GreenAntz vs inputs to TV (so includes some cabling). Signal response latency was only about 20 nanoseconds (comparing rising or falling edges), though when signal inputs went from extreme LOW to extreme HIGH or vice-versa there could be up to 100ns (0.1 microseconds) before signal output fully peaked/bottomed.
So I think an estimate of "tens of nanoseconds" latency is about right, which would qualify as "zero lag". About as fast as it gets.
For these tests I compared inputs/outputs for green/luma and vertical/composite sync.
