i made a supergun with an rgb-ntsc convertor from crazearcade. the video is a bit bright/oversaturated.

any suggestions on resistors or should i get some kind of pots. if so, what?:emb:

What sort of resistors do you already have on your encoder's RGB inputs?

I think I was using 175-185 ohms total on my NeoBitz-S (75 ohms on the board + added 100-110).

0-100 ohm was what i was planning on getting when i was thinking of doing that to my neobitz v2, but never got around to it. That way it just adds 0-100 ohms to whatever is in place right now. I was going to replace the onboard resistors with values slightly lower (20-30 ohm) to allow the pots to have more effect.

On my Neobitz V2 I use 260ohm resistors, I would defenitely recommend pots though as you can adjust them easily instead of replacing resistors over and over again to fine tune it.

I've personally jumpered every resistor on these encoder boards and put a 500ohm potentiometer in line with each of the RGB lines. Maximum flexibility.

Yep...

to a search for instrumentation knobs...

After you make sure that i spelle instrumentation right....
