KenToad:
I don't need any more hype. I'm ready for the order page. :cheers:

It also contains a sync combiner that will allow you to use either RGBHV for PC CRT or RGBS for TV screens.
I could add a transcoder/sync splitter if there is enough demand, but it would increase the price and complexity of the device a lot.
And my goal is to keep it simple and affordable for everyone ;)
But I might consider add on modules in the future, if enough people ask for it.

There's no need, I already own a few different rgb to component transcoders. I'm just used to the MiSTer outputting component video directly though the VGA port and the lack of clutter.

I'm also ready to buy!

Howard_Casto:
So explain this one a little more. Is the gun going to work if I adapt the vga out to something else, so long as it goes through a crt? I was thinking component would be a common input method for later model crts. The gbs and some of the other scalers have some way to output component.

If this isn't super expensive you've already sold another one.

There should also be a rgbs out through some standard video connectors, like the genesis one, haven't decided which one yet.
But yes it's not compatible (yet) with other standards like composite, component or s-video, as those would makes the system way more complex and expensive.
I indeed intend to make it not super expensive ;D

Howard_Casto:
Sounds like I need to rgb mod my crt then. Been meaning to do it but the dang thing is so heavy I don't like to move it much less take it apart. I would suggest either the genesis connector or better yet scart as those are the rgb standards.
