Picasso II to HDMI converter solution needed

[JohnnyM1969]

I have an A2K with a Flickerfixer in the video slot and a PII card I'm pulling out of mothballs, and want to use it on a modern display. 

I found an answer of sorts in an old thread, but I have the same issue.  The problem is the OP in the other post didn't share with us their solution, as in did they use a cable, converter, or combination to make the connection?  Was it homemade or branded/kit form items used?

I'll take any input on the subject, especially if it is an example of a known working real-world installation. 

I also have an A1200 I would like to hook up using HDMI, but that connection seems to have been covered by many others.

Thanks!

You could try one of these:

Plug the VGA end into the PII.

I don't think that solution would work to adapt the VGA signal to the HDMI monitor.  From that Amazon link above:

"Important Note: it cannot transmit signals from vga to hdmi because it is NOT a bi-directional adapter cable."


While it's not what was requested, another possible option is to find a 'modern' monitor that can accept either the Amiga native 15kHz RGB video or the VGA video from the Picasso II.  This is a useful reference for finding such monitors:
