It'll most certainly output 480i/576i and will probably introduce lag. Devices like that aren't intended for video games.
You'll want this when it's ready:

but this device, the svideo is in the board
In my case the tv has svideo input, would it have to be a cable svideo end connected to this board and another end s-video connected to my tv?

in case I find a crt tv with component, what cable is better recommended?
hdmi to component or vga to component? This latter I worry about how to get sound from the mister to the tv.

Most consumer scalers see 240p as 480i and will be laggy, at best it would be consistent lag at worst the dreaded variable lag. You are better off just getting the new S-Video / composite adapter
