Powerstrip

[Rod Crawford]

Has anyone successfully used Powerstrip to convert computer VGA to Scart RGB
for PAL 50 Hz (eg Loewe or similar) TVs? If so, could you post your
settings please.

Thanks
Rod

Why would you think it is possible?

stupid question, it should be possible, judging from all the articles around

I think you'd be much better off purchasing a VGA card with S-Video output,
or something along those lines. What are your current intentions?

Nah, the RGB/Powerstrip route gives much better quality.

Exactly. My Radeon card does have an S-video output but S-video undoes most
of the quality gains from digital TV. There is a lot of material posted on
the 'net on Powerstrip but most of it relates to US NSTC TVs.
