I'd like to introduce my homebrew open source and open hardware project called Arvid. I think some of you might like it.
The name stands for ARcade VIDeocard and the goal is to produce perfect TV output for arcade games of the past emulated on modern PCs.
The first prototype is up and running, video is here: https://youtu.be/cIl1TJGvT5M
Feaures of the card - more than 40 refresh rates ranging from 50 - 61 Hz which allows smooth scrolling while preserving original game speed. - pixel perfect resolutions: 320, 256, 288, 384, no interpolation or scaling is involved. - videomodes use progressive mode, that means natural scanlines.

Cheers! ole
