The Simple Video Scalar operates with displays that have VGA / PC inputs.

 

The Simple Video Scalar converts interlaced video to progressive such that video can be displayed on screens with a VGA / PC input. It operates by a process called de-interlacing. Whereby it converts the interlaced picture of a TV broadcast, or video cassette or DVD, to produce a full "progressive" picture.

The Simple Video Scalar is compatible with both NTSC and PAL resolution of 480i and 576i outputs its progressive equivalent of 480p and 576p.
