I edited the title, because I've never refer to this unit as an AVT-8710 clone. It's not. But it is a Cypress.

Fun fact:
Most of these CDM-660 units are pretty dismal, lots of issues (noisy, unstable, etc). But some good versions exist. In the past 9 years, I've only located 9 good units. And oddly, almost all of them were found in 2021. Why and where did these come from? It's sort of like the 2019/2020 TBC-1000 drop. Attempts to find more were all wasted time/money, to the point where I've given up trying to find more.

PAL only! The NTSC has cyclical jitter problems.

It's also variable. Some can exhibit slight tint changes, in addition to being slightly softer. But it's rock-solid TBC on PAL signals.

In other words, you can safely buy this unit (assuming it was taken care of, and I'm sure joonas did so). However, I would not suggest trying to find one "in the wild". Learn from my wasted time/money, don't repeat the mistake.
