Title: Running Retro RGB Consoles on Arcade Monitor
Post by: esoteric_rt on October 01, 2018, 06:05:19 pm

OK, finding a PVM/BVM above 20" (or even 14"..) is pretty tough these days

What would be the easiest way of running my RGB modded consoles on a 15Khz Arcade Monitor?

I cant find much about this online, surely not as simple as stripping a Scart cable and connecting the RGB/Sync wires?

Cheers

Only extra thing you need is a video amp (http://www.ultimarc.com/vidamp.html).

Here's another excellent option (http://etim.net.au/scart2arcV20/scart2arc2.htm).
