Lore:
You need an active Y/C adapter, specially for cvsb, otherwise the cheaper passive adapter will produce a lot of rainbowing (S-Video looks clear on both adapters). The one quirk with the Y/C adapters is that they require MikeS to have implemented his magic into the cores. At the moment, all cores known to support 15kHz displays have implemented Y/C. N64 and Saturn are still in beta, but you can believe they have full Y/C support.

Regarding the Analog I/O board versus the Rankie HDMI to VGA adapter:
With the Analog I/O board, you are limited to only 1 SDRAM but the majority of the cores support single SDRAM. The main advantage with the Analog I/O board is that you can use the unused HDMI port for dual display output:
>streaming
>testing lag between digital display versus analog/crt display
The main advantage of the Rankie HDMI to VGA Adapter is that you can have two SDRAMs for any cores that require it or have enhanced accuracy. Apparently, HDMI also has true 24bit color support for certain cores but I absolutely cannot tell so It's not a loss for me.
