darkman Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 So I have given it some thought, and I realized that I would like higher quality video on my TV from my good old Atari.... My TV does not have seperate Croma/Luma inputs, however it does have Svideo! I have all the specs, I could go out... get the connectors and build the cable... but I am not good a building cables. So I have found an outside source to manufacture them. They are using High Qualty Materials, and are profesionals. Here are the Specs of the cable: Atari 5 pin din - to - Svideo/RCA (audio)/RCA (composite) This cable will replace the need for any of those other cables (unless you intend to hook it up to a monitor with Croma/Luma rca inputs on it) If your TV has a Svideo Connection on it, you can use that, if it doesn't you can hook up the Composite RCA insted! My question to you guys, is if you would be interested in one of these cables for yourself? They are a little expansive, but I think it's a cool thing to have. -darkman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Sauron Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 I personally have no need for one at the moment, but I'd still like to see that type of cable as an option. Wasn't someone here trying to build an actual S-Video 8bit cable a while back? Edit: Duh, I see you saw that thread too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkman Posted July 3, 2003 Author Share Posted July 3, 2003 Yah... I was reading the Thread on those tring to build em etc... I should have mine in about 3 days. I was able to get it for cheaper than before too! If anyone wants one, let me know. It looks like they cost about $20 (but thats subject to change, in either direction!) -darkman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjlazah Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 I would definately order one! To have Composite Video and Super Video would be most excellent! -Tjlazah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shannon Posted July 4, 2003 Share Posted July 4, 2003 put me on the list... with the direction things are moving with tv's these days, that type of connector would lengthen the life of the old 8-bitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
