Default Quality HDMI to CVBS converter recommendations?

Hello,

I'm looking for a good HDMI to CVBS (composite) converter to use with an RF modulator that I already have. The goal is to be able to hook up a PC to my B&O Capri 606 TV from 1960.

So far I've tried with this rather pricey converter https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111695703981

Even trying this with a modern TV with composite, it has strong ringing at any resolution, meaning that ghosts of borders/edges are clearly visible, like 4 ghost images. The box also defaults to NTSC (push button), which is very inconvenient. I like the zoom feature and the build quality, but that's it.

Does anyone have a good quality box they can recommend which does PAL with good picture quality? It must support some kind of later HDCP (1.3+). Cost preferably below £200, so professional equipment or pro-sumer with decent build quality shouldn't be too much out of reach. Would prefer one in a metal chassis for durability.
