Re: RGB to component video cable IIGS?

It is 2002 and HDTV units are finally starting to fly off the
shelves.  Just six months ago, industry naysayers were
calling high definition television a flop but recently sales
have begun to pick up.  More importantly, even the non-
HDTV models have become more quality oriented.  The
good TVs out there now have component video input so
that red, green, and blue signals are fed into the TV on
separate data paths.

The Apple IIGS RGB port outputs standard (in Canada &
the USA) NTSC frequency video on separate red, green
and blue channels.  Has anyone made a IIGS RGB to
component video cable?  Does Alltech have one?  Does
anyone have a pinout to make such a cable.

In the future, I will be jumping on the high quality TV
bandwagon and I would like to ressurect by IIGS at the
same time and since I was always a fanatic when it
came to using the IIGS to its maximum capabilities,
composite video out just does not cut it!

If your TV has an RGB input on a SCART connector, you can find details for making a IIgs to SCART cable at my web site:
