Re: RGB to component video cable IIGS?



Supertimer:
Well I did this project for an older digital projector.  I used a Mac to
VGA video adaper plug (straith-through) normally used to hook up a
multi-synch VGA monitor to a Mac.  Then I got a $20 cable that goes from
VGA to 5 BNC connectors.  Since the projector synchs at 15kHz, no extra
circuitry was necessary in the Mac-VGA adapter.  I can either hook up
all or just the RGB cables as the unit will synch on green, but find the
quality better if I let the seperate synch lines do their job.  All with
off-the-shelf parts.  Gotta love that IIgs, don't ya?

Thankx,
Ed
