This is a follow-up video to a previous video, showing the VCR Mode / AFC issue with the BKM-68x RGB input card: https://youtu.be/CneMJC-zTf8
At this point, there's not much more NTSC testing I can do. I still need to test PAL consoles and I forgot to try component video. Unless someone finds a way to either enable AFC, it looks like the only good solution for now is gscartsw v3.4 to Extron 580xi. Here's the main page with all the info: http://retrorgb.com/bkm-68x.html

This is just a short stream testing one of my favorite little CRT's: The 2000's-era Brionvega Algol reproduction. Basically, this is a "modern" PAL CRT modeled after the ones from the 1960's. Let's use a MISTer to test it out and see how it looks!
PLEASE NOTE!!! It looks like only the original 1960's TV's are on eBay!! If it doesn't have a SCART port, it's one of the old ones: https://ebay.us/q6ToMs
TONS more info and the service manuals are here: https://www.retrorgb.com/brionvega-algol-retro-crt-902-foit-bv1.html
