MAME on a Sanyo 480i Component TV?
lewdog80:
I've been interested in making a cabinet for a while, and I finally dove in. My problem is that I have a 24" Sanyo tube TV that has composite, s-video and component inputs. However the problem is that the component only accepts 480i. I've purchased multiple VGA->Component converter boxes only to find out that the output of the converter box needs to be at least 480p.
I always have the option to fall back to s-video, but I specifically bought this TV because it had a component input.
Does anyone out there use their component inputs on their TV that have to be 480i? And if so, how did you do it?
Thanks!

Hi,
Have you thought of using this:

And then dialing your video card down to 480i? I am fairly certain that the ArcadeVGA can adjust to that...

Good luck,

I bought one of the cables originally, and didn't get any output on my TV, so I thought I needed a converter box. I didn't change any resolution settings on my computer though. Worth a try though.

Changing settings in the video software that came with your card is definitely the way to go.
You may have to visit the manufacturer's website to find it.
It doesn't always install automatically with the drivers.
