Is there a component->vga converter that can output 50HZ vga

Post by keropi »

Hello!

does anyone know of a component->vga converter that can output a 50hz vga signal if it detects a 50hz input?
What I am really looking is a device that can take the 576i/50hz signal from my ps2/xbox1/gamecube (all are PAL) and can output a 50hz vga signal (and not a 60hz) so that there is vsync and motion is smooth as it should be.
I have a vbox hd-360 right now , but it does not care of the input HZ, it only outputs 60hz , and makes motion jerky for those 50hz games...
thanks! :grin:

all the home theater processors out there. If you watch out for an older one, like the DVDO iScan Pro (Component to VGA), they're less than $100 at the moment. They will keep the source's refresh rate and pass it through to the VGA output.

I searched eBay and found some expensive ~2.500$ DVDO hardware LOL
Fudoh can you please find me an auction or picture of the model you say? Thanks!

I have an iScan Pro I bought years ago and never really used. I'm not even sure how much they sell for now

they do lag. About the same delay as the box you tested.
