Need advice to buy any convertor/adjuster/booster of VGA for capturing

[miro@hotmail]

Hi!

I have PEXHDCAP capture device with HDMI, DVI-D/VGA and Component inputs.
I can capture HDTV, by this way by converters also Composite video, S-Video.
I capture also VGA, only component is unused.

For capturing VGA I need VGA signal corrector, adjuster and booster 'cause VGA output of captured device is fatally weak.
It has not enough intensity, brightness, contrast, saturation and also R,G,B are balancing.

I was searching web for any device to adjust/correct/boost signal 'cause no one software solution makes it possible, but I found only precious devices which working with many signal types and no match with VGA, for example MK electronic CVX506...

Can anybody of you recommend me any device which allows to correct/adjust/boost VGA signal brightness, saturation, contrast and Red, Green, Blue with option to turn off without signal loosing? Best if possible under 200 EUR...

I need it connect to VGA output and from device to PEXHDCAP...
I want also to write that PEXHDCAP was for me recommended by user of this forum... and I'm satisfied at all and this is reason why I'm asking again here.

Many thanks for all advices, help, replies or comments.

Doesn't your capture device have proc amp settings you can adjust?

Hi!

Of course has Video Proc Amp, also original software has settings, I'm using NCH PhotoPad to edit, but cannot or is impossible to reach original in case image or video capturing.

Look:
original VGA signal


original S-Video output (not possible to use - you see that interlaced modes processing only odd or even fields, not both)


best result (original software)


best result using Movavi Video Proc Amp


after correction picture with PhotoPad:


If I try to capture video and try to enhance image, results are high quality loss, looking like lower resolution and I tried many solutions that my OS is full of Video Editors...
For this reason I search for device.

For completion:
I own AG Neovo X-22 LCD which allows perfectly correct HDMI/DVI-D/VGA/2×CVBS/SVHS and here is the same VGA signal corrected by LCD:


And at least image looks like on Neovo LCD I want to capture as default.

The closest thing that I could find to what you are looking for is called a VGA presentation processor or VGA presentation switcher/scaler, but they are expensive items and most have been discontinued by the manufacturer. You might be able to find a used model from Kramer Electronics on eBay that is being sold for a reasonable price.

Hi!

I was searching eBay, but must to say that no one was that I need, also found prices ~200 GBP... but really I need not switcher, not scaler...
I need device which works with picture properties written in this thread above...
