 |

Looking for a composite/ s-video/ component input carts. Would like to know what is out there for 9" tubes as well for a 9500lc ultra. Going to just leave this hoping in 18 months someone will be unloading some minty tubes! I'm in Ontario, Canada.

What are you trying to do with this?
are you aware that with such a board you will not get the full performance of a 9" projector.
Composite and S-Video will only be 15 kHz, the black lines will be bigger than the active lines.
you do know that there is a HDMI input board available?

Looking to plug in my old gaming consoles, I have a computer hooked up for high res video.

Hello
For Marquee you want a Decoder Board; I might have a few of those here. Two S and two composite ins. Electrohome never had a component in board; the early Moome board did, I might have one here.

I highly recommend studying everything before you go for boards that at worst only can do 15 kHz on a projector that can
handle up to 4 times more.
the scanlines will be huge.

I know, that's why I find the remaster of Miami Vice so awesome on it, the picture is mint! But the fact that this projector can handle 15khz signals natively so well is a huge feature! Try to plug an n64 into a modern tv or projector and it becomes a laggy, upscaled artifacty mess. Plug it into a marquee and you have the greatest retro experience available in my opinion.
I've been doing it with rgb cables from my super nintendo and sega genesis and the results are gangbusters!

FYI that pretty much any CRT projector can handle 480i (15Khz) natively, or any other resolution too (within reason). Not just Marquees. CRT Projectors by their very nature do not have a 'native' resolution. Good luck!

Honestly, the Marquee video/Svideo input boards were awful! If Tim has a component input board, go for that, or get a Lumagen scaler, and scale the 480i signal up to 720p or so. Older Lumagens should be dirt cheap now.

I discovered ONE brand new red from the 150 or so NOS ones that I purchased about 6 years ago. Sealed in the box, I'll open it to make sure it's intact, but it's prealigned with the yokes, etc. Should be good to go. I sold sets of 3 for $1800 USD back then, and sold all complete sets that I had.
Yours for $200 CDN plus taxes and shipping. Should be around $50-55 to ship to Ontario.
