			supergun yuv/s-video aes yuv/vga ? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I got a new projector http://www.visualsystemsgroup.com/P...rt/PT-L500U.... i was wondering because it sync's down low enough for a supergun but will only accept the signal in yuv or svideo it looks like so... also composite for the neo-geo looks like crap on a 200" screen(looks awesome though through laptop emu's through vga) is there any way to get it to component , vga or dvi-d ?

			Hi , Great question. Yes,There is no substitute for a huge screen. I also like modding etc and have 3 projectors. I know what you mean by component video and how awsome it is. I also have a good freind who mods aswell. So far we have been able to run a Neo Geo 1 slot without any supergun what so ever and directly to the tv. The quality is amazing. In fact any Jamm pcb now works and doesnt require a supergun. With the Neo Geo i dont think it will be easy getting component video,I also wanted to do this with the Saturn as it has a high deffantion mode somewhere. The native Neos output is not component so i guess that you will need to get an adapter which externally manipulates the image from svhs or rgb into component. Check out www.licksang... for some very good items. On a similar note i ahve teh Dreamcast and Gamecube running on a 21"VGA monitor. Also with the infocus range of projectors i ahve found a way of getting 2000 hrs use for £6($10). I did this by taking the original bulb out and replacing with 100 what halogen bulb and separate transformer which powers the bulb. The quality is just as good and saves a fortune.I had to use a Playstation heatsink on the back of the projector which works a treat. I hope you succeed, I once had r-type on the pc engine running on the side of somebodys house when we had some snow. The r9 ship was as big as his front pation windows? Thanks, Ian.

			Couldn't you just run the red,green and blue signals into a vga or dvi cable and then hook sync to the composite video line? I guess the problem here would be telling it take sync from here instead of the vga connector.....hmm.maybe you could tie composite sync/video to both the horizontal/vertical lines and hope that it will accept 15khz instead of 31khz over the vga connector.Maybe a sync stripper is in order here if the neo-geo doesn't output composite sync,that is if your projector can't strip it itself.BTW i envy you and your projector although it must of cost an arm and a leg
