Don't hold out on us Corey, do tell more.  :-)  I'm assuming you built
something that converts interlaced vga to s-video using some kind of
s-video encoding silicon?

I've mentioned what I did in the past, starting with
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/45910#45910 Basically built up the circuit in the AD724 datasheet. It's a surface-mount chip, and circuit layout is a little important (a few MHz bandwidth video signal), so I make a PCB. I've thought of making a slightly nicer one (with VGA loop, though, etc). If there were enough interest I suppose I could finish it off and send off for a limited run of PCBs.


  No scaling done, just build the
proper modeline and see tvout the way it was meant to be.

Sounds nice.

Yeah, except that you get garbage until X comes up. The VGA on bootup is basically 480p, which doesn't exactly work on S-vid. Aside from that detail, it's great.
