Hi,
@exxos I've just installed one in my STF (short one without modulator), which had some serious issues with video signal (I've got another STF, which has super video output for instance).
I will probably post something about installation process later. The only thing I've noticed that I had to turn monitor to max contrast. I'm not sure if this is scart cable issue or philips crt. Still didn't check it on standard sc1224..
Anyway video output is great in comparison to what was before.. I've got horizontal lines on uniform colour backgrounds. It would be great if signals on board would be marked as R,G,B. I've figured it out at first shot, but it would be more helpful if those markings been there. But it looks like it was added in v6.. I've got v5.. Anyway :dualthumbup:

When I saw that in the pic my mind raced to the possibility that you had solved the problem of how to connect up a VGA socket on the end of an FPC cable.

Adapter boards could be done for a VGA socket. Really the RGB socket should be on the DAC board.. but just never enough hours in the day.. Easier with a H5 ;)

Dear exxos, is there a chance the boards will be available again anytime soon, please?

Delivery is expected Wednesday. I will add the stock to the store tomorrow. Likely will be a few days delay before shipping though if anyone orders quickly.
