From the project

VGAxSCART Adapter

A VGAxSCART Adapter for RGBS. This is one of the different links in my RGBS dongle series.

This dongle passes RGB and Sync video signals, as well as stereo audio between SCART and VGA. Note it does not convert H+V Sync from/into CSync.

The SCART fast switching/blanking voltage is preserved for compatibility, while the function switching/aspect ratio voltage is discarded for better safety.
