I've bought a Super Video genlock at eBay for $8 - much better output than CVBS (or even RF :-P), close to RGB quality and works nicely with the SVideo input of my WinTV card.

(I don't use the genlock function at all, just the RGB-to-SVideo conversion.)

Yes, the 1950 will work (with the appropriate cable).

Converting to Component will not improve signal quality, as RGB's the best you can get. With higher scan rate it's used for VGA (up to 300 MHz) and is only slowly obsoleted by DVI. But it wouldn't hurt much either, with the Amiga's low scan rate.
