Re: Automatic 10-ports SCART switch review - Best for budget
Great review, thank you for this!
A couple questions:
1) is it possible to output via euro scart and rca connectors at the same time without image degradation?
2) is there any sync cleaning included?
I got a aliexpress 6-in-2-out for these very features. The "2 out" is 2 euro scart outputs and 1 rca output, and I use one of each. The sync cleaning is also necessary in my setup with a ypbpr transcoder in the output chain that doesnt play well with a couple sync on luma sources. The switch I have, however, introduces some mild interference. It's not terrible, but could be better.

1- I don't have enough monitors to test this features, but I took signals from RCA jacks into the oscilloscope while it is working and found no interference. Yes it is not like fully loading but still can be indicative. if you find a way to do this via OSSC please inform me.
2- I don't see any extra circuitry. plus what type of cleaning are you talking about? sync stripping and so on?
my setup as explained in the video is getting scart rgb from consoles then to the switch then to rgb2comp converter and after that to the CRT. I find 0 problems with this, no sync issue or any issue. using the switch with ossc is also without a problem using scart rgb.
if you inform me on some testing procedure with my setup and equipment, I will gladly do it for you. no problem.

I hope this video gets into retrorgb weekly show, will really boost it up and gets the review to many people.
Re: Automatic 10-ports SCART switch review - Best for budget
Thanks for the in depth review, Vegeta. Based on your review I've purchased a similar switch based on this design that only differs in that it has two European SCART outputs. I have one output going to an RGB2COMP and the other to a GBS-Control.
It's working very well with all of my systems except the Neo-Geo CD with my homemade cable, which it is not automatically switching to. The cable is wired with sync on luma and but with no other signals but R, G, B, and audio. I'm wondering if there are any other signals like putting voltage on the blanking pin I can try to convince the switch to switch to the NGCD's input. I don't think it's an issue with sync on luma, as my PS1 SCART cable is wired for sync on luma.
