Have found something interesting... this one:
http://ulegan.de/pal2rgb/pal2rgb.htm
This is an article and plan about building a PAL to RGB converter circuit. It's not PAL-N capable, but a quick look around the TDA8362 chip revealed that it should be simple to add that functionality (the TDA8362 by itself is capable of PAL, NTSC, PAL-N, PAL-M, if the proper crystals are supported, and even SECAM, with an additional chip). I'm sort of happy, to put it that way... :D For a short moment I was still hesitating whether I could obtain the chips, but after a few searches at various Hungarian electronic component resellers, I know that even this detail is positive. The page even supplies a PCB plan... will have to order a PCB from some local manufacturer (it's a single sided PCB, I won't even expect it to be expensive), buy the chips, and here we go...
...Well, if I only knew, where on Earth will I find a suitable, 3.582056Mhz crystal... :-DDD
