/vr/ - Retro Games

The fact is you shouldn't have to buy a TV and then buy another piece of expensive-ass equipment because the TV manufacturer couldn't do it's job right.
How's that fact for you? Now why don't you go back to /v/ and fuck off of /vr/?

>You keep mentioning progressive. Only 1 mainstream console can even use a PC CRT monitor without a transcoder or line doubler.
1) Gamecube with a mod to the component cable (jumping two pins) can output VGA.
2) xbox 360
I'm sorry, I believe that is 2. Or is the Gamecube not mainstream enough?
Yes, I know you're going to reply that the gamecube component cable costs as much as a scaler. That is correct. However, you wanted VGA on mainstream consoles, I gave you VGA on mainstream consoles. You ignore the fact that YPbPr can do progressive scan as well.

If you know how to do voltage multiplication with transistors you can make a YPbPr to RGB converter for under $30 without any actual digital processing taking place.

Some quick googling shows me that (yes, with essentailly instantaneous transcoding, so before you think you're clever and that I ignored your post, I am aware you said 'without transcoding') YPbPr can be converted to RGBHV (VGA) for about $12 with a LMH1251 IC.

Additionally, my CRT that you seem to hate so much can handle YPbPr AND RGB. So for me it's a non-issue.
