Anyone interested in RGB SCART>S-video converters?

I am thinking of selling these. It would be contained in a cable with a SCART line socket on one end and an S-video plug plus 2x phono on the other end.

This would be aimed at buyers outside Europe.

The price for these would be considerably lower than an RGB>YUV box and the postage lower too, as it would be all inside a cable.

I am thinking about $30 for these cables. If demand is high enough and I can buy the components for less it'll drop to about $22. But demand would have to be seriously high for that.

Now this is similar to the work involved in making an s-video TG or PCE, except I put the entire thing OUTSIDE of the console, and you can use any RGB SCART cable with it. Genesis, SNES, you name it.

I generally find s-video to be an acceptable signal and if you don't have a component TV or you want it for a CRT or video digitiser that only has s-video and composite in, this would be a nice budget option.

What do you think?

is this a CXA based encoder or the same encoder as the Neobits? Also could you build S-video boards for use internally?
