well, the ps1/2/3 are outputting component just fine, and the cables are just adapters for the av-out attached to three ordinary rca-cables.
it's not like it needs a converter-chip *COUGH*GAMECUBE*COUGH*.

>> No.3859573

>>3859570
only thing with PS1 using the component cables is you have to keep in mind that on the PS1, the cables will send out an RGB signal instead of a Y/Pb/Pr signal, which may limit compatibility with some sets. Playing on PS2 however will give you no problems, provided you are using the Y/Pb/Pr color space in the system settings.

No.

The PS1 multiout outputs RGB on the same pins that the PS2 outputs component on.
Ergo, a PS1 RGB cable and a PS2 component cable are exactly the same.

You simply need to either use the composite out on the console (100x revisions only) or a GunCon inline breakout adaptor (pic related) to get your sync.

>>3859824
With the greatest respect, you have no idea what you're talking about.

The component cable carries the r, g and b signals as has been pointed out. The composite out carries the sync signal. You end up with RGBs which can be, via RCA to BNC adaptors, be plugged directly into a pro monitor with no chinkshit SCART fuckery required.

component just means multiple parts of a video signal through different cables. The PS1 can't do Y/Pb/Pr, but it can do RGB through component no problem.

>> No.3859895

99% of 3rd party component cables are chinkshit.

Keep an eye out for genuine Sony PS3 ones - with the metal connector barrels. They do come up cheap sometimes but you need to be quick off the mark.

Just a heads up in case you don't know, as long as you have one legit PS1 game you can just burn and swap any game you want. Not sure about imports but for your console's region all you need to do is tape the lid sensor down, go into the browser, hover over the legit disc, then swap it with a burnt one and off you go.

The PS2 had its 17th birthday just over a week ago. The Dreamcast was 15 when the rules were changed to include it as a retro console. How much longer I gotta wait? /v/ used to be okay for ps2 discussion but it turned into meme shit once the ps3 era started, and that was literally 11 years ago.

the ps2 is 1999 anyway, while released in Q1 2000 the emotion engine cpu and gs i-32 chips and all the other hardware was developed in '97-99.
