Yet another entry for the scope-abilities list –
These projects offer the ability to convert composite or VGA video signals for oscilloscope display. You’ll need a scope with Z/intensity input in addition to the X & Y axes in order to pull this one off. Hey, how else are you going to get that authentic analog-green shot for the music vid? – seriously, anyone?

It’s vitally important to keep at least one green-screen monitor in working order. I have one that I use for Matrix-style video hacks on old 8-bit machines, for the full glowing green characters effect.
Just a small point about the dual 555 circuit shown above, it’ll generate slightly non-linear scan ramps because the capacitors are being charged through fixed resistors. For truly linear scans, connect the 555 to a constant-current circuit instead of those 1Mohm trimmers.
Now, I know NOTHING about oscilliscopes,
but wouldn’t moving the “head” around that much damage it or wear it out excessively?
@TheDonkey: no, I don’t believe so – NTSC video signal writes one field(1/2 frame) 60 times a second – or 60hz – most analog/CRT oscilloscopes are rated well into the megahurtz – so that scope won’t feel a thing. It’s just doin’ its job proper.
There is some danger of very intense signals marring the phosphor screen tho – the above project page talk abit on that.
Nice tips! i did not knew that they are all somewhat connected.
Thanks a great deal, these records had been i’m all over this in my opinion. I’ll search for this website to get future upadtes. Thank you once again.
