C64 to arcade
« on: January 14, 2005, 09:36:06 am »
I have a commodore 64 I'd like to interface to my arcade cabinet.  I'm going to hack some genesis controllers i got for $0.99 for the joystick interface.  My main concern is how to convert an RF modulated output or composite video (C64 has both) into 15khz r, g, and b signals

any ideas?

Bill

yes, thats exactly what I'm looking for.  (not sure if it will work with my arcade monitor or if it has sync and whatnot)

but that is insanely expensive.   :(
