Damn People messed up a good thing. I am pissed I want to have the best s-video mod for my neo geo but !arcade! will not take any more neo geos in.
All because the way people blame him for messing up there neo geos. Now no one is left to do the advanced s-video mod.
What to do? I want the best video possible for my neo geo with no rainbow patterns. Damn those people……!!!!!!!!!
Any 1 out there do the advanced s-video mod.

Not to be an A-hole, but MVS gives you that for free...if not a cab, then try a consolized system 1-slot. It's cheaper than buying a s-video+ stereo modded home system.

How about the rca to s-video adapter from Radio Shack? It supposed to work both ways. It's about $20 if I remember, and you won't have to mod anything. :D

Not to be an A-hole, but not everybody wants to mess around with the technicalities of owning an MVS or buying an MVS just to have better video.

Especially when I already own an AES, and have had it since it was new.

lol lol lol lol

That thing sucks beyond all belief. I bought one a while ago because I needed a compostie > svideo for a vga box I had. Recently I tried it out on the TV. I found that the standard composite signal actually looks better. That thing doesn't improve video quality one bit. Don't waste your money.

Just a reality check, converters aren't made to enhance anything. Converters are functional objects. They make A fit into B.

This is horrible news! I got my Neo modded by !Arcade! and I think that they did a great job. I am very sorry to hear that they left the market. I am glad that my system is in perfect working order. I hope that my Neo never dies because if it does, I will be in deep shit. frown

I have a system modded by Kenny Boy and I must say the picture is exceptional. Kenny does great work.

Damn, it's a shame some of you had a bad experience with the adapter.

I'm sure someone would find it useful anyway, but ur advice will definitely be helpful also.

SSS is right. The adapter does nothing to enhance the picture. I was just thinking, the next TV I am going to buy is going to have an Rgb input. I heard some japanese and euro TV's have this.
