Anyone got any experience with this device or similar, to output video signal to a VGA monitor?
 
Would this work for an amiga?
 
Whats the quality of signal ?

I don't see RGB input, so the quick answer is no.

That looks pretty slick. You wouldn't happen to have a picture of this device in action would you ?

On a related subject, I am selling these adapters.

The RGBi -> SVGA adapter could be used with an Amiga. Interlace would probably be out of the question.

I know that these adapters - http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.35058
work perfectly on VGA/LCD monitors when combined with these adapters - http://amigamaniac.com/RGB_to_PAL_NTSC_adapter.html

So I'm pretty sure your one should work too, at least with Composite until you get an S-Video adapter.
