The COMP2DVI takes an analog component YPbPr input and  routes the signal to the analog pins of a DVI connector. The Comp Cleaner is an open-source ([https://github.com/db-electronics/UMDv2-kicad/blob/master/license CERN OHLv2]) device, designed to filter 240p - 1080i YPbPr component video signals for use with digital devices, such as flat-screen TV's and capture cards. This will allow more flexibility to your setup, depending on your target capture card or device.
The Comp Cleaner is not a scaler!!!  It simply routes the analog signal to the analog pins on the DVI connector!!!  Visualize it exactly as if it was a Comp-to-Comp device, just with a different connector on the output side for interfacing with capture cards and displays' analog inputs.

The COMP2DVI takes an analog component YPbPr input and routes the signal to the analog pins of a DVI connector. The Comp Cleaner is an open-source (CERN OHLv2) device, designed to filter 240p - 1080i YPbPr component video signals for use with digital devices, such as flat-screen TV's and capture cards. This will allow more flexibility to your setup, depending on your target capture card or device.

The source gerbers, as well as the Eagle design files, can be downloaded here:
