Hi,
Got my VPL10 and very happy with it. I wish to get the best possible picture for the GameCube or any other scart RGB device (video player, playstation etc) and there seems to be a few ways to do this - but which one? I have a Dreamcast running with a Dreamcast VGA box into the Projector via a VGA to 5 BNC's lead and the picture is amazing - would love the GameCube to be able to match this quality.
Options are as follows for GameCube:
RGB scart Lead from Cube to projector via J.S.Technology RGB to VGA Convertor
RGB scart lead from Cube to projector via J.S.Technology RGB to component convertor
Import a Japanese component cable for the GameCube and go straight into the projector
RGB scart lead from Cube to projector via a simple scart to component cable (5 bnc's).
Also there is the syncblaster - does this do the same job as the J.S.Technology RGB to VGA Convertor?
My guess is the J.S.Technology RGB to VGA Convertor would give me the best piture. The price of the unit would indicate that this box has some clever tricks up its sleeve but I have also read that any convertor causes loss of picture rather than improve it.
And finally there are Upscan convertors/video scalers - Seem expensive - does anyone use theese devices and have any recomendations?
As you can see I have searched around for a solution but i am totally confused - If only all hardware came with VGA outputs - I would be a happy chap. Any help would be great.
Is component inferior to Scart RGB in this instance?
