Scandoubler alternative
« on: December 25, 2007, 10:44:43 AM »
Spotted this on the Maplin web site

Looks a s useful bit of kit as it accepts composite video and converts it into VGA - certainly cheaper than a scan doubler - that is if you can get hold of one.

Has anyone any experiences of these boxes ?

I would say at the price this is well worth taking the risk particularly when compared to scan doublers. The last one I had was an external one and produced a very sparkly display at times. At least this unit should give some improvement from the composite output and you can display on a standard monitor.
