SNES problems
« on: January 14, 2006, 05:51:51 am »
OK, not really a problem with the SNES but it is related to it.

I plugged it into my video projector today (Infocus X2), picture came up fine but the image was jumping up and down a bit. On a TV it looks fine.

Then I tried a Megadrive, which did pretty much the same thing except worse. TV looks fine.

I figured out that the problem is that the output video is non-interlaced.

Question: Is there some (simple) device out there that can re-interlace or double the fields in the video?

Otherwise I'll just get a Composite to VGA converter.

Thanks
HP

Just on a side note, I noticed both the SNES and megadrive have RGB output capabilities. I'm assuming this is 15khz. Anyone confirm this?
