thgill Posted September 4, 2012 Author Share Posted September 4, 2012 Update: Just wanted to let everyone know parts have been ordered and waiting on them to arrive. I had a few stragglers that I was waiting on before I ordered everything I needed. Will keep thread updated as stuff arrives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigm71 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 I sent you a post to see when we should expert the cable and I have not heard from you. Can you post here when it should ship? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coyo5050 Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 So did he take the money and run? Sept 6th is well over a month ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 So did he take the money and run? Sept 6th is well over a month ago. I think it's too early to say that, something personal could have happened. I'm a bit nervous now however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SabertoothRetro Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Sometimes life happens. Other AA members vouched for his earlier run. Hopefully everything is ok and he comes through with an update or the cables soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thgill Posted October 19, 2012 Author Share Posted October 19, 2012 Hey guys Sorry about the missed deadline. I ended up taking far more order than I thought I would. Anyways, most of the cable shipped today! and should be in your hands early next week. Here's what shipped: I shipped all S-video only cable orders today. Later this weekend I will ship any Scart RGB cable only orders. In about two weeks or so I will send those who ordered both a Scart and S-video cables (which there was two of these orders). Also, I have a large S-video cable order from Songbird that will ship in about two or three weeks. Thanks for your patience on this. Also, once I ship the last of the cables, I will post up details on how these cables are built so anyone else wanting to make themselves one of these in the future will have a guideline. Open Source of sorts. Some pics of what the finished cables look like: RGB Scart: Svideo/Stereo/Composite: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robocop2 Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Got mine today too! High quality stuff here anxious to try them out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Sauron Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Got mine today, and love it! You did an excellent job with these. Too bad the audio jacks for the S-Video port on my TV are broken... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocop2 Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 I almost forgot to add that those who say S video is great on the Jag are 100% correct. It's like playing on a completely different system than the old crappy RF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmetal88 Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I almost forgot to add that those who say S video is great on the Jag are 100% correct. It's like playing on a completely different system than the old crappy RF I wouldn't say the S-Video is great so much as the RF really, really sucks. Even the composite out on the Jaguar is much better than the RF. S-Video is a small step up from composite (to me, the sharpness of the picture is about the same, but there's less color bleed). I've built a couple of RGBS to YPbPr converters, though, and that looks absolutely amazing, with sharp pixels and no distinguishable color bleed. Soon I'm gonna try making a converter using that chip from the SNES so I can hopefully power it from the Jaguar itself, and I won't have to use a separate dual supply. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtshark7 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Picked up my cable from my parents house yesterday and it works perfectly! No more blockey s-video output that I got from my cheap POS cable on ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DrTypo Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Hello, I got my cable from across the pond. It works well. Thanks to the S-Video output I got rid of the weird composite artifacts. Thanks you thgill! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SabertoothRetro Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I got my cable earlier this week but just had a chance to try it today. The s-video works great. Thanks for putting this together! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Have the SCART cables gone out yet? I still don't have mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
