shockF6 Member 478 Member For: 19y 4m 21d Location: Melbourne Posted 15/11/05 02:32 AM Share Posted 15/11/05 02:32 AM It doesnt output a rgb signal (if you dont have a blau box) well have a look at this!http://www.jaycar.com.au/productView.asp?I...eMax=&SUBCATID=have I missed something or is it just this easy!I was under the impression (when reading through the long thread on digital tv) that the output of the digital set top box being used was an interlaced signal (via SCART), I.e. the Ford ICC takes a RGB+Sync NTSC interlaced signal. If this is the case, then the converter that you mention above will not work.Can anyone confirm this? Or at least put me in my place I think you're right ROBiiE Yes Robiie you are right however, its not hard to grab the rgp signals from the board before it hits the video output IC.well not hard if you have a cct diagram anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShockF6 were you talking about this box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShockF6 were you talking about this box?yes that's the box I was talking about. funny thing is I saw 3 jaycar staff members mucking around with this unit for over 1 hour trying to get a signal / any signal from ANY antena and to top it off they tried all the units they had in stock! all no go.this was a couple of months ago when the AFL grand final was on and the staff in the shop really wanted to watch it! but in the end they just used the analogue tuner from a vcr and it worked fine.Im sure if you got lucky enough you would get one that worked But for me I would hate to see anyone waste there time and money on this one.

The staff said it was a new product and it is listed under new products on the jaycar website. Maybe this one works? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
