Here's another link to the FAQ  RGB Video Encoder FAQ

It allows you to plug a Video arcade game board into a regular TV receiver that accepts video, or S-Video input, in the NTSC encoding format.

This board ONLY works with standard resolution arcade boardsets ( 15kHz horizontal line frequency ) 

it is NOT designed for medium resolution games
