That's why I'm intending to use my computer to emulate to a CRT.

Speaking of which, here I have a diagram I'm following to output from VGA to another form of RGB with composite sync. I'm no electronics expert, but shouldn't I also put some diodes after the resistors to ground so that I don't get a leak back from the ground rail into my signal?

Hey guys. I bought a pre-calibrated BVM20F1U with a replacement tube from 2009 off a retired Sony Tech. Only thing is he's away from his residence or so and he won't be shipping it or communicating with me until Tuesday (I'll post pics when I get it). In the meantime, maybe you guys can help me out with some things.

The BVM comes with BNC-in with RGBCs (composite sync which threw me off because I bought a truly component Horizontal-Vertical Sync RGB BNC cable from a thrift store). I was planning to pass-through a VGA source into the BNC lines. Anyways, long story short I'm gonna have to convert the Horizontal and Vertical Sync to Composite Sync and only use four of the BNC lines as opposed to all five of them, which I'll be using the pic attached as reference to do so (even though I'll be converting to BNC as opposed to SCART). Another thing that irks me is that I know VGA from a PC source expects EDID information (metadata on the other of the 15 pins available to identify safe display modes and detect the monitor being used). I heard there was a way to create a 'dummy' device to output generic monitor information to the PC, but I don't have any references to do this correctly (I just need simple monitor identification data to detect I plugged something in, as I can set a custom 'forced' display mode myself through my video drivers). The EDID info is the biggest obstacle I'll probably need help with. So I would appreciate it if any of you can oblige.

Shiet, seems more complicated that I expected.
I'm gonna try pic related, hope it's enough.

OP here

thx a lot guys!

so, provided I can get my graphics card to output a compatible 15khz signal via VGA, what cable would I have to make exactly?
(would the one in this image work?)

also, what black level voltage would I need?
(I'd probably have to get an additional power supply for this)
