Ben,
Just to give you a preview:
It plugs into the DCTV passthru socket; your monitor connect to this. It
does not attach to the composite port (although it is most certainly some
sort of Composite <—> RGB converter.
My friend has hooked up his SuperGen to it, and the composite out is
amazing! Additionally, there is a genlock feature that allows one to make
a range of colors transparent, for overlays. A very nice touch.
The RGB quality is certainly better than the composite, but it still
shows chroma noise. You effectively get another screen mode for your
Amiga; this hookup will be great for multimedia apps, kiosk stuff and the
like. Yeah, I know that we had this "extra screen mode" with the HAM-E,
but us DCTV users have been getting pretty used to constantly pushing the
RGB/CVBS switch on our monitors for some time 🙂
