RGB input on Sony Trinitron Multiscan G420

Post by amontre »

I got this Sony CRT monitor and plan to use it for Dreamcast VGA via Toro. I also notice there's an RGBs in put at the back. Can i use this with SCART to BNC similar to my PVM input for 240p gaming (Genesis, Saturn etc) ? or Wii component out ?

Manual says 30KHz min horizontal. So no.

You'll need a line doubler or scaler such as the GBS 8200 and then a VGA>BNC cable to get your systems to that monitor.
