Well Jeff, if what you say is true and it works, you could stand to make a decent profit selling assembled converters to Amiga users. Price them low and they will sell like hot cakes. Especially if you can find a way to provide component video output.

Provide us with an amiga video port input (if needed) and or a composite video port, and we can provide all the pin schematics for all the Amiga models released.

Give us s-video and hopefully component video and you've got a hot seller. Add SCART output for all those blokes in the UK and you've got quite a bit of money coming in.

The biggest problem for us right now is that all the video converter solutions that let us break away from 15Khz monitors/televisions are over a hundred dollars. Most of us settle for hacking an A520 or using composite video unless we have a built system using RTG.

I can't speak for them, but even though I have a really nice setup I would happily pay for a adapter that gave me quality s-video and especially component video out for my Amigas.
