Capture card that supports PAL60

Hi I've been looking for a capture card that supports PAL60 and a lot of them online don't outright say that they do PAL60 just the general NTSC / PAL / SECAM etc. I'm trying to capture from my Wii by the composite cables and the capture card that i brought recently (August VGB100) works fine with PAL50 but when trying to play on 60Hz it's just in black and white, no colour :( And i've tried to get colour but not had any success.

I've not found any pin based capture card that supports it natively (probably because it's a rarely used signal type). What you could do instead however is use a hdmi adapter / converter and use a hdmi capture card. It's a bad workaround yes, but it's the only method I've found so far to get PAL60 to work with colour. (then again, the adapter/converter also has to support PAL60 for this workaround to work in the first place)

@Liv pretty much none of those settings would help if the capture card doesn't accept PAL/NTSC signals outside their usual refresh rate. PAL60 isn't exactly common, I only know a few PS2 games like Makai Kingdom, and some GC stuff like the GB Player use it. here's what this type of capture card supports: https://i.imgur.com/d2wonBT.png

Yeah it doesnt have a PAL-60 option sadly. I did see some people hacked their Wiis and region changed it to the USA and it would output an actual NTSC signal but I don't want to risk bricking my wii. I'll return the one i have now and get an EZcap (It does say it supports PAL-60 how didnt i notice that before!) Thanks guys :)
