Tomi Engdahl's VGA to TV converter specifications

Connects VGA card to TV with SCART connector
You can build thisn yourself inexpensively
Can be used with NTSC, PAL and SECAM TVs
Very sharp picture, better than in many commercial products
Simple circuit
DOS support for most VGA cards
Works with very many DOS games
Works with Windows 3.1 and 95 with some graphics card using DOS drivers
Windows 95 support for Matrox Millenium and Mystique
Linux Xfree86 support for Cirrus logic VGA chipset
Circuit works with any 9-16V AC adapter or regulated +5V power source
Almost all technical details available in the web
Driver source code available freely to those who wish to contribute to this project

Bad sides of the design

Needs always drivers
There are not drivers for all grapahics cards (problems with S3 chipset support)
No generic Windows support available (works on some card but not all(
You have to build the circuit yourself
Original design works only with TVs that have SCART connector (there is also a document of converter with PAL composite video output)
You can't use circuit to record computer picture to VCR
No circuit for reducing interlacing flicker
There is no scaling hardware so some resolutions do not fill the whole TV screen or go beynod the visible TV screen area
DOS drivers do not work with S3 chipset based VGA cards
