threeornothing Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 I'll tell you if you get this loan sorted But anyway.....Try Maplinhttp://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=37141&C=Froogle&U=37141&T=31291 This won't work with a CRT monitor though...You might need a female coupler with that if your monitor has a fixed cable... 4th product down herehttp://www.revealcable.co.uk/acatalog/_D__Type_Adapters.htmlEDIT: slightly more expensive but this should work with a CRT...http://www.superfi.co.uk/index.cfm/page/moreinfo-1.cfm/Product_ID/1614 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EchelonDivision Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 You cannot link a SCART output to a CRT monitor input. You can with a DVI output though (it seperates red, green, blue, brightness, luminousity and sync). Why not buy a cheap PCI video-capture card with composite video output for about 15.00?Connect the DVD/PSX to the PCI card with a composite video cable. Connect the AGP card to your monitor as normal. The output from the DVD/PSX will then be output to the monitor directly.Alternatively, why not try a Playstation emulator such as Bleem!? Get a decent DVD drive for your PC while you're at it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EchelonDivision Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 http://www.superfi.co.uk/index.cfm/page/moreinfo-1.cfm/Product_ID/1614I stand corrected!A bit expensive! Plus, the Playstation doesn't actually have a SCART output. So he'd also need a male composite video to female scart socket connector, the degradation of luminousity would be massive. A Macrovision encrypted signal would not pass freely through a EUROSCART to VGA breakout box either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
