Yup, that's the one.

I would go with the HDRetroVision cables as well, assuming you can find one.  :-\

Yeah, I was fortunate enough to back the Kickstarter which meant I got three cables (SMS, Genesis, SNES) and I got them a little cheaper than what they would sell for now.  It's without a doubt the Kickstarter I've benefited the most from.  I was tempted to sell the cables after seeing what they were going for (at least at launch), but I decided against it as I really wanted to use them.

There's that one company who makes component cables for the SNES. Can't recall the website at the moment, but it's been posted here before, I do know that.

If you're saying that, you haven't done it yourself.

I did it to my original S-ENC SNES and the results are fantastic. Better than RGB from the same model SNES (the early SNES's have very soft RGB).

I did not use the circuit in the OP with a transistor. I simply connected Pr and Pb with an inline resistor and capacitor on each one (I don't recall the values but I also didn't try multiple combinations so my values may not be the best). The Y is already available from the multi-out. I removed the RF encoder and put a TRRS jack in its place, and I use a YPrPb dongle that are easy to find online.

Note: The picture will still be 240p and look like garbage on LCD TVs. Use a CRT or XRGB, although I have seen a lot of sync problems with component on XRGB.
