Title: STILL WTB: Scandoubler
Post by: pan1k on December 02, 2007, 06:47:04 PM

Still want/need a scandoubler. I hate taking out my C= 1960 monitor to play games. Would like an Indivision or DCE scandoubler. Will pay up to $250USD!

What monitor is it? What inputs does it have? Just D-Sub?

Some newer LCD monitors now come with S-Video inputs, it's very cheap to get an RGB to S-Video converter.

Other than that, you should consider a non Amiga scandoubler, one for a Playstation, X-Box, Wii.

XRGB or like.

If you're interested in an internal scandoubler, I have one.
It can be used together with the Cybervision 64/3D or as a stand-alone scandoubler.
It's in great working condition, but I bought a Picasso IV, so I don't need it anymore. :-)

Send me a private message if you're interested.  :-)

Get a good internal one if you have the choice, preferably a 24-bit capable one if you have AGA

Would you be happy with a 16-bit one?

AGA is 24-bit.

No i would prefer a 24bit one .. But if i can find a cheap 16bit that will do

I'm guessing the scandoubler for the cybervision64/3d is 16bit right?

I dont think anyone knows. It will be easy to test when you get it. Let me know and I'll supply you with the test images and add the info to BBoAH.

All I know is the Picasso IV RTG gfx card with scandoubler is 24-bit. I just bought one today for $310
