RGB DIY Cable Question. VGA/DB15 or Component YPbPr?

[SEEtheREPLAY]

Hi Guys.. I'd like to keep the cable situation as simple and cheap as possible. I don't want to use any kind of SCART cable or adapter. I also do not wish to purchase any prefabbed cables at this time... Maybe down the road, yes! But right now this is a hobby/project of mine that i would like to enjoy building for a bit. I know how to solder and am familiar with PCB boards. I've already modded my SEGA Genesis to output Stereo Audio, composite and S-Video.

I understand that for RGB i'll need to add resistors/caps/etc. But i'd like to make the the hook up between the PVM and my retro consoles as simple as possible. I considered using a VGA/DB15 connector to connect the two. I would obviously have to create a female VGA/DB15 port on the back of my PVM as well as on the consoles. Is it as easy as adding the needed resistors/caps etc since the consoles?

The desired effect would be something like this


Or should i go with component/YPbPr (analog) instead?

what is a pvm?

what systems running on what res are being hooked to what type of resolution monitor/tv?

most classic console's can just be straight wired rgb off the video chip.

ps2 xbox and there on you can just use component with one of these.

to get the most out of each you would need to be more specific on what each is and what your trying to do with them and on what make and model display type.

for what it sounds like though that board is your friend and will save you money time and the headache over doing them all manual like lol.
