Light gun to work w/component?

<< < (3/4) > >>

Scoobie:
I think the point is for those of us using a component connection for better picture quality, it would be considerably noticeable to go from component to composite.

With that said, I was never able to get my Act Lab TV gun to work with the s-video connection (the only way to hook it up I believe) on my Toshiba TV.  It did work on my old TV that didn't have component (but the picture quality was much better with component, so I sacrificed the few gun games I'd play, for picture quality)  I did try the Guncon2 option, connecting the composite cable to the green component input.  The gun was recognized, however I was never able to get it to stop the gitters.  After attempting suggestions (with unsuccessful results) made on the Guncon thread, I needed to give it up for a while.  The concept is there, and driver seems okay...the gun just wouldn't stop gittering.

Oh well, at least you know you can hook up a composite cable into your green component input. :-\

Wait scoobie ... are you talking a bout a standard RGB scart cable ? If so,  did you try to feed your gun with pins 19 / 17 for SYNC / GROUND ?

Maybe you should put some pictures. It already sounds strange to me that you have a videocard with TV-OUT that outputs an RGB signal ... generally it is composite or S-VIDEO ...

If it helps, I have been running the Pelican Silent Scope Rifle through the component output of my Xbox on my widescreen TV (rear projection no less) without any picture or functional degredation.
