The Commodore VIC-20 CLEARVIDEO mod - S-VIDEO or composite video with improved quality

Описание: Improving the video quality on an old Commodore VIC-20 8-bit retro computer.

The VIC-20 has not the best video-output originally. At least not when the machine is 40 years old.
It provides a video signal produced by the VIC chip, and no RF-modulator built in.
The video quality can be improved if you disable the video circuit and use the video signals produced by the VIC chip directly.
This can be done with the Clearvideo mod that is a small PCB that goes between the VIC chip and the video port on the machine.

This mod produces a S-VIDEO signal, but can also be used for composite video. That is what I did in this video.
