Hi anyone,
i have a small 12volt tv that is based on the KA2915 chip. the tv has an
RF input but no A/V input. i want to know if its possible to tap in
somewhere with a composite signal and bypass the RF stuff.

any ideas?

thanx, Louie
 
Can you use VCR to do the conversion?
If not, you can buy off-the-shelf RF converters to convert from line in to
RF.

I've often found old Playstation or N64 RF modulators for sale REAL
CHEAP at Cash Converters.

actually, i found them at a local electronics surplus store
(allelectronics.com) for only $5.

do you suppose i could put a VGA signal through one of those and use a
tv with my PC?

um, no - not on your nelly... certainly not on your telly!

I refer to this thread;

(what a ridiculous URL! Hope it works!)

a slightly different discussion, but it may enlighten you on the many
differences between PAL and VGA. It can be done using such things as
"scan convertors" but it's expensive and often not worth the hassle.
 
OK, thanx, dude, i'll check it out.
