Your first linky ain't working.

But more importantly, using the composite input for scan-doubling is the method of the lowest quality (look at that horrid ghosting).

This box would be valuable if it could or would scan-double the VGA inputs, which I highly doubt it does (almost ALL boxes scan-double composite/SVHS inputs, but not all scan-double RGB inputs, such as VGA inputs). I hope am wrong about this box and would be curious to hear your feedback.

Good luck.

@mfletcher:

To Alexh's and my defense, you have to understand that this topic of SD/FF (scandoubler/flickerfixer, but also of 16bit vs 24bit SD/FFs, yes, go read about it, else another 'caustic analysis' might come your way) has been a very hot one, and we're sometimes assuming people have been following/reading/searching (searching? HA!) at least one of the 10,000 threads on it. For example, as -D- said, Roy's project has been the talk of the week lately.

But of course as Nasty says, if you're happy with it, no need to be ticked about said responses... They're only extra knowledge for your memory banks.

Anyhow, in your case Roy's box is probably your best bet at the moment.

Cheers and GAME ON! :-)
