You can easily tell if a signal is pure csync by hooking it to a TV's composite input, which should result to synced solid black (or white) picture.
I'm confused, isn't csync determined by
the cable? If so, it's an RGB SCART cable how do I do that? If not, then wouldn't it be determined by
the device?
When it comes
to RGB SCART and not being tech-savvy, you really have
to make sure
the company you by them from has
specifically wired
the cable
to use CSync. I remember when I first started ordering SCART cables, I didn't know what I was doing and ended up getting a bunch
of composite video wired SCART cables. I thought
to myself "Is this
the shit that's supposed
to knock my socks off about how much better SCART is?? This sucks!". I threw
the cables away and gave up in disgust. Then some years later I kept seeing people's screenshots with amazingly pure image quality, and I knew there had
to be more
to it. So I started reading articles, watching videos, and studying diagrams.
The next time around, I knew who
to order from (retro_console_accessories on ebay) and exactly what I wanted. I just asked them
to make sure
the cables were wired for csync and I was good
to go for my NTSC consoles.
