My tv has no S-Video input (Nether does my Capture Card) so I need to convert it to Component. |

Just tell us what to buy and we will buy them ;D |

Same. Just N64 and NGC don't support SCART |

There's the S-Video to Composite route which, video quality wise is slightly better than regular composite video but in the end it still smeary muddy mess. You could go the S-Video to HDMI route, that's going to be the second cheapest but that takes up an HDMI port which if you only have one could pose a problem. Most TV's have at least 2 or more but I've seen a few with just one. There is the RGB to Component route as well, but then you start getting into cost of RGB cables, plus the $50.00 RGB to YUV box, and it's good to have a SCART switch since the CSY-2100 doesn't have audio output without modification. The only Y/C to Component video boxes I found were professional grade, I'm sure China makes a cheaper one but from what I seen it costs around $150.00-$250.00 to convert S-Video to Component video. --- Quote from: larryinc64 on May 10, 2016, 02:27:20 PM ---Same.

But it's only 480i RGB not 480p without homebrew software. If you want 480p out of a Gamecube you could buy the expensive component cables right now, or wait till Bad Ass Consoles releases his GCVideo upgrade mod which will remove the digital port and allow you to use easily found Wii Component Video cables, or the HDMI upgrade which allows both digital audio and video over HDMI. Will it cost money, yes, will it be cheaper than Gamecube component cables, most definitely, it's all about what you want to spend. And N64 supports SCART with an RGB modification. :D |
