Title: component/dvi/hdmi on your A1200/CD-32?
Post by: PaperMario on July 31, 2007, 05:43:59 AM
do you think it would be possible to get mentioned outputs from your Amiga Computer?
that sure would be nice, displaying high resolution on your tv in higher definition than far inferior composite which looks blurry and unimpressive.
Neo Geo for example can be modified(these came out in 1990's) and look what people can get out of them with proper modification.
they are very powerful(considered by many to be the most powerful 2d systems ever created), but they are displaying its graphics in relatively low resolution, think how Amiga would look like on your HDTV!

Component is possible in theory, using the Neobitz (http://www.neobitz.com/) adapter (which was designed with the Neo-Geo in mind).

You connect the R,G,B, Composite SYNC and Ground lines from your Amiga to the board, then wires from the board to RCA jacks/S-Video sockets depending.

They will also give you Composite and S-video in NTSC so handy if you live in the US.

There is a member here who posted a good video on Youtube showing the process with an S-Video/Composite only version on his A1000!

Just type in "amiga 1000 s-video" on Youtube. ;)

I'm not sure if anyone has tried the Component version yet though.
