I am shopping for a little module for the Wii, its an HDMI adapter which up-scales the Wiis 480p Signal into 1080p (not true HD, but looks nicer on an HDTV). Now the US Wii does not do RGB at all, but the PAL models do. Does anyone know if the PAL variations of these HDMI adapters upscale a RGB input or do they all just upscale the plain progressive image. |

The US Wii does RGB via component video. Are you specifically talking about SCART? |

The US wii has no RGB, very few US consoles can do RGB. |

The only way to get a true RGB is to run the SCART through either an HDMI or VGA converter that costs about 50 dollars and has variable success rates per console (and converter) of actually displaying properly. |

hmm, from doing extra reading, if you short pins 8 and 10 on the wii, it brings it into YPbBr no matter the region. Pal Wiis only do RGB in non progressive scan modes. Great Success. |
