Hdmi To Vga Converter - Power Draw Okay For 360?
« on: August 19, 2012, 02:09:00 PM »

Are you plugging it into the USB port of the 360? USB standard dictates 500mA current to be supplied at maximum. By all accounts, I believe the 360 adheres to this standard, so you should be OK. If you didn't get enough current, your adapter would likely not work correctly.

500mA from HDMI? From what I can find, the most the HDMI spec allows is 50mA. You sure it really needs 500mA?
