Add a component input to any projector, TV, or monitor that only accepts RGB (VGA).

The RTC2000 converts the component (YPbPr) signal found on many source devices to a RGB signal required by most CRT projectors, computer monitors, and some TVs. Designed by a home theater enthusiast, it is regarded by most as the best component to RGB transcoder available (regardless of price). The fact that it's one of the least expensive ones available and has a pile of extra features like adjustable gamma boost is an added bonus.

The RTC2000 is identical to the RTC2200 other than the lack of the adjustable Gamma Boost feature. If you already have a device to add Gamma Boost to your setup, consider the RTC2000. Otherwise the RTC2200 is a better option. For more information and screenshots of Gamma Boost in action see here.

The RTC2000's cable driver stage lets you use an analog output cable of any length with source devices. You no longer need to place the source near your TV. Perfect for those of you that already have a long RGBHV cables installed.

Allows you to force the sync polarity to positive or negative for fussy projectors or displays like older Barco projectors.

Allows you to tune the horizontal shift, horizontal width, and vertical height.
