Arcade RGB to SCART adaptor.

Post by Mikey »

6-pin Arcade RGB (H-Sync, V-Sync, Ground, R, G, B) to SCART - I'd like to acquire an adaptor that does this, if one is available? Otherwise, I'll have to try to make one. Also, if anyone has any experience with using a PAL TV as an arcade monitor, I'd appreciate their advice.

Just remember that a lot of arcade PCB's are not exactly straight fits for a PAL TV. You might have to move the image around and stretch it.

I don't think an adapter is commercially available, but there are several people on this forum that could aid you in building one for a price.
This industry has become 2 dimensional as it transcended into a 3D world.

Thanks. Yes, I'll need to use find the TV's service menu. For now, though, I'd just get a kick out of seeing it displayed. I'll probably end up making a connector from a SCART lead if a standard connector is not readily available.
