How do I get a PC to output 240p component?

Will a transcoder like pic related to the trick?

Probably, assuming the sync rate is supported by the CRT meaning (usually) 15khz for authentic retro gaming displays
>>
Outputting 15khz shouldn't be a problem, the PC I want to use this with has a Radeon 7770 video card, which is compatible with crt_emudriver.

So I guess I just have to hope that my Toshiba sd/hd tube tv will work with it.

Pretty much the only TVs that will run at 15khz are studio monitors. There are programs available for both nvidia and ati to force non standard resolutions.

I wish this shit would get sorted out for modern video cards. I know there's ways to do it looking at some of the more complex home arcade cabinets out there, but the solutions all seem pretty convoluted.

Modern cards don't even support analog video anymore.

Does anybody have experience with the Retrotek VGACTV1? I know that scart version doesn't do 480p.

Well, the ebay advert for the VGA transcoder claims that it does everything from 240p up to 1080i; the scart box from the same seller doesn't mention any specific resolutions at all.

I've gone ahead and ordered the VGA box, so we'll find out if it does what I want it to.

You don't, instead you should get a display that can take HDMI/Displayport/DVI input.

Oh then this >>4116173. Just send it 640x480 (or 740x480 if it's 16:9) at 60hz through its DVI port.

?

>>4116173

No.

When a Wii sends a 480p signal to the tv, it looks like garbage, same as a PC using a VGA crt. But when I set (e.g.) RetroArch on the Wii to put out 240p, it looks just like real hardware.

So I'm trying to do that with my PC now. That means getting a 240p component signal out of it. DVI can't do that without a transcoder AFAIK.
