Several others like Nec 3D for composite and Iiyama MF5117 will do
that except it can't do composite.

But, better get that Nec Multisync rebuilt with new tube (tubes are
fairly standard nothing special about them) and many capacitors,
whole board resolder work if you can afford that. I don't know who is
still making like this kind of features and this rebuilding expense
should worth the trouble.
