Does anyone own the SLG3000 and/or Sync Strike?
I'm considering buying these 2 pieces of hardware, but wanted some feedback before I do.
For those who don't know what these are:
The SLG3000 is a Scan Line Generator. It basically takes a VGA signal and generates CRT style scanlines into the image to make older games and system graphics looks correct on a modern LCD monitor or TV.
The Sync Strike converts a SCART RGB source into a 15Hz VGA output.
So you can see that these 2 devices work very well together as the Sync Strike can convert the output from an old console or Computer via RGB scart into a 15Hz VGA signal, then the SLG3000 can add Scan Lines to the signal. This could then be passed on to an upscaler like the GBS-2880 to then upscale the signal to display on a standard LCD monitor via VGA.
This does mean you will have 3 boxes in series between the source system and the display. It also requires that 2 of these devices are externally powered from a 5V 2A PSU. I'm thinking it should however be possible to integrate all these into a single case with a single PSU, with just a SCART input and a VGA output, plus access to the various adjustment controls provides on each device.
What are peoples thoughts on this setup?
