Is this a homebrew adaptor? If it is homebrew: would you like to share
the circuit drawings and the software setup?

I am currently considering a VGA->SCART adapter. IMHO this should be
not very compilcated, since SCART can eat RGB. AFAICS the most
complicated thing would be the XFconfig to meet the TV freq's.
Second problem would be to choose good cable so the signal quality
would not be hurt on the 15 meters from PC to TV :)
