According to what it says on that site, it looks like just the thing you're after.

Good find!

I hear you bro.; glad our monitors from jwang3 were good.  I've spent the last 14 hrs tweaking the hell out of the monitor, and playing the 360 on it.  Simply beautiful!

I have the xbox 1 hooked up to it via a x2vga transcoder connected to the vga in on the monitor, and the 360 connected to the 5 BNC on the monitor via a 5 BNC to vga cable connected to some monster 360 vga cables.  Works perfectly.

The most visually impressive game i've played on the monitor is, hands down, Kameo, with CoD2 coming in second.  Plus, halo 2 looks pretty damn good as well.

I want to hook up a progressive scan dvd player up to this monitor thru the 5 bnc input.

Would this work: 5 bnc to vga - to - mini gender changer - to - vga to component - to - dvd player

That would work, but since your monitor only has component hook-ups and not vga, i'm pretty sure it does not support sync on green.  In that case a transcoder will be necessary.

Progressive scan dvd player > Component cables > Transcoder that allows component hookup (VD-Z3 or the not yet released x2vga2 are the best, and relatively cheap at under $80 shipped; look in my sig for links) > 5 BNC to VGA cable.

That is your best bet that would garantee it would work.  Plus, with a component transcoder you'll be able to hook up a ps2 and play 480p ps2 games, gamecube, and an xbox1 on your monitor.

You could try it as you described, but odds are it will not work.
