analog RGB from Xbox 360

Post by kemical »

I didn't realize this, some of you may know, but you can get analog RGB + sync from an xbox 360, the easy way is to get an xbox 360 scart cable, but if you have any extra microsoft av cables laying around, it is pretty easy to solder a connector onto it.

I used this diagram: http://www.maxconsole.net/content_img/xbox360RGB1.jpg


It looks very nice, a good idea to try for anyone with an RGB monitor setup.

Do you sell RGB cables that will work with a US Sony PVM RGB monitor? Normal UK X360 SCART cables won't work.

the PVM's have a DB-25 connector right? (same as a parallel port), pretty easy to make a cable for that, and if jpj already makes them I'm sure he can do it.
You could also consider a scart to DB-25 connector, with the audio routed through the scart and into the DB-25 for the PVM's speakers, and then you'd be able to plug any RGB scart source into it... or go the DB-9 route with two RCA plugs going into the DB-25 connector... etc :)

that's a shame. and i only sell them, i don't make them :)
if you are interested though, give me a shout. the pure gold ones are really nice, but we're talking $60+
