-- it really should not matter as the VGA adapters out there are not true VGA they are just cheap upscan converters [ like the Redant ] that modify the scan rate . The Xbox has disabled VGA output ! The only way to have a true VGA output would be using the High Def / Component pack with a Transcoder to convert the Component connection to VGA .

Well , that is interesting ... I have seen these before but with the newer versions it would appear that they have come close to a true VGA connection by way of a cheap Transcoder on the Component connection - thanks for the link !

Tis a real slap that, I really want to get a true vga converter, if only some one made one with a 'auto-bypass' to a line doubler circuit for non 480p screens such as the dashboard, evox, emus, etc.
