Just wanted to share my gaming setup for 240p goodness. In case anyone's interested, I put up a big thread over here:

looks cool rob :)

I've kinda wondered, if I get the RGB mod for whatever game system, would that work on a VGA input?
edit: Oh yeah, nice setup, dude :D

Only if you have a device that accepts 15khz VGA input, and you almost certainly do not. (True VGA is 31khz)

Nice work on the custom switch boxes :-)
-
I finally have everything connected and easily switchable, without ever having to move around or even see any wires.
That's a dream of mine :mrgreen: It's an amazing setup, congratulations!
-
Very nice setup!

My TV and transcoder :D
Seriously though, Deadite is right, don't expect anything below 480p to work on a CRT PC Monitor or an LCD TV or anything like that. Also most RGB mods put out RGBS or RGB with composite video as sync, not RGBHV which most "VGA inputs" will need, hence the sync seperator in my switch box.
"True VGA" is kind of semantics though. VGA has several meanings. It could mean an RGBHV signal OR 640x480p@60Hz resolution OR a DB-15HD connector.
Thanks for the compliments guys!
-
Very impressed!
-
Those switch boxes are intense.
-
This thing is not my style at all (way to much dusting for my tastes) but you certainly went crazy completing your plan. Good job!
-
I have to say it...Awesome work! No wires!
Really, good job!
-
Wow Rob you most certainly got down with all your work .. GREAT SETUP DUDE !!!
-
WOAH. So super jealous. Very nicely done!
-
Thanks, now that this is done I'm out of excuses to work on my other projects!
-
STATUS: Dear Lord! I love your...EVERYTHING. Holy crap. Usually I feel OK about my stuff, but DAMN, your setup is godly.
-
Very nice man, great work!
-
Thanks guys!

Quality post!!! can you post again how to get to that sony screen to set the picture? I have a WEGA as well, just curios!

The service menu?
"with the TV off, press Display, 5, Vol +, Power on the remote to enter a Sony service menu"
Be sure to find the service manual for your TV. Make a written note of the original values before making any changes. Never reset to defaults or anything like that or you could brick your TV.

Brick my TV?

Make it useless as a brick.

I understand that but how in gods name can I do that so easily? I need a service manual for a 34" WEGA, that will help me trouble shoot it?

Another TV in the wall.

There is a procedure in the service manuals to reset to factory defaults or something like that. These default settings return the TV to the state it was in at the factory BEFORE it was calibrated by a technician. You won't have the equipment to recalibrate it properly and you might not even get a picture.
A service manual will tell you what buttons do what, and give you a slightly better idea of what the values you're adjusting are. Some of them are still cryptic though. You'll want to stick near the beginning in the DEF category for geometry adjustments. The manual also has instructions for saving your cyhanges so they're not lost when the TV is unplugged, as well as physical adjustment around the neck.

Nice work!!!
