    Used a Scar to AV adaptor and then an AV to HDMI, really simple considering it was used to broadcast the extinction of the dinosaurs

    Wow, I actually have been thinking of getting one again to watch some retro movies on em lol.

    Nice flex though XD.

    What are you converting to on the AV box?

    Just asking since the TV has SCART it likely supports analog RGB and that will give you much better picture quality than composite or s-video.

    It is one of the few flex Europeans have over North Americans TV wise. 80s and 90s European TVs supported a higher quality picture input out of the box compared to anything commonly available in the US before component was introduced.

  4. What do you mean ancient? My grandma still use this Samsung in the kitchen. It’s like new

    Edit: remote is like new. Still packed up 😂

    I’ve had exactly the same TV when I was younger :D.
    Ah, so many great memories!

    What monitor details come up in the windows display settings, including refresh rate? Quite curious lol

    My Mom got me one of those for my 16th birthday so I could have my own TV to play video games in my room. I feel old now.

    It looks like the one _”The 8-Bit Guy”_ always uses and he just repaired.

    It shouldn’t be black and white though? Are you playing NTSC content on a PAL screen?

  12. aliusman111

    yeah it is good that you are trying to use it but honest wth is this lol – only seen this in movies

  13. QuickPirate36

    Oh I’d play the fuck outta GTA San Andreas, God of War I II & III and Budokai Tenkaichi 3 on that bad boy

  14. WannabeRedneck4

    Looks exactly like the one the 8-bit guy uses, any plans to rgb mod it?

    If it is you’re lucky because everything is already documented.

    Nice!! What does your PC “see” as a monitor when it’s connected?? And what kind of resolution are you pushing?
