Well I wasn't using it and I wanted something to do =)

Normally I use an old CRT with SCART connector, but I also have a projector that hasn't got SCART. The projector has Y-U-V connections so about a week ago I bought a second hand SCART->Y-U-V converter so I could hook it up.
 
It gives a nice sharp image but unfortunately there are som slight vertical "ghosting" of the colors.
 
So since I had an A520 that was of no use to me I decided to give it a try and see if the converted A520 would produce a better image than my scart-yuv converter


Hello!
I didn't try the A520 mod for Y/C output, but since you speak about the YUV input of your projector, remember that YUV is DIFFERENT from Y/C.
Y/C means separated luma (brightness) and chroma (color) signals
YUV (also YCbCr) means luma signal (Y), U blue color minus luma signal (B-Y), V red color minus luma signal (R-Y)

So Y/C output is not compatible with YUV.
