Ill give FBX's interlaced widescreen profile a go and see how thats looks...otherwise i guess ill be getting a component break out cable for the xrgb, is there anywhere in the UK that supplies these??
EDIT: FBX, does it matter that your XBXCOMIW profile is supposed to be for component cable??....as ill be using a scart cable?. Will i just have to change the input from component to RGB?
I've never actually tried
to use a profile on a different input than what I programmed it for, so I honestly don't know 100% if it will work. Logically, as long as
the reported resolution in
the full status is
the same,
the profile 'should' work (and yes, you'll need
to load it into
the RGB input
to try this).
I will say though that you should look into nabbing some component cables. I was very impressed with
the xbox's 480p mode. It was significantly better looking that
the PS2 480p mode. Crystal clear in fact, and WAY better than 480i even with
the Framemeister's horizontal softening bug. My own xbox is one
of those hacked OS jobs, where it can store games on
the hard drive without needing
the discs
to play them. I keep my top 30 favorite games on it,
like SSX 3 and that Riddick game called Escape from Butcher Bay.
