thanks for your reply. do you know which sony centre has it? can you introduce the your local game store to me, coz can't find them.

thanks alot

what did this thing convert the video signal to? 720p or 1080i?

it depends on your TV actually, most HDTV supports upto 480p and 1080i(540p) only. only high end HDTV supports 720p. this thing does not convert the video signal, it just connects your computer vga port to your HDTV rgbhv input, which both of them are compatible. there is a tool called powerstrip which u can use to change your graphic card to resolutions and refresh rate that your HDTV can support. this output is much better than a S-video output to TV

Frankly speaking, RGBHV through RCA connectors aren't very common. Instead, you usually see separate RGBHV on BNC connectors on professional or high-end gear. If your HDTV has a VGA port, then I recommend using it instead.

BTW, I'm curious, what make and model of HDTV are you using?

i think you've got it wrong
this is a vga out to a component cable
not a ps2 out to component

i think you have better luck in pc forum
since this is a pc thingy


ya
like my old samsung plano
cost a bomb but have vga input
too bad it only supports 640x480
handy for watching dvds

Aya ! Next post more detailed Lah !!

huh?

the thread starter should have post this on the pc forum instead of here

altho this have lil connection(playing console games)
but the question ask is
more (100% rather) related to pc hardware

a cable to connect the pc vga to the tv component
Hmmm... console?

NOT!

i'm using a phillip rear-projection tv 43pp7445 which does not have a vga port.

then u should look for such cable as well, to have resolution up to 1920x1080i or if your plano supports 720p, even up to 1440i.

MAME is the best console ever!

my plano....

do say laaa

I dunno...the question is WHY you want to play MAME games on HDTV via PC??

True HDTV mode (720p /1080i ) etc are all wide screen. I dun think
you'll find any widescreen MAME games. Even if you somehow manage to get it working in 720p/1080i mode, you'll either get stretched screen or black side borders...why bother??

480p isn't HDTV. I play MAME in 480p games using XBOX and frankly, not much of a difference with 480i.

Lastly, all MAME are old games, dun need hi-res at all. Just use ur standard S-Video cable out and it's kau tim.

No need to waste money or headache.

you are right, but before you load the game, you need to navigate in your windows. well, if i have a TV that is capable of higher resolution, why not fully utilize it.

i search for quite long already but cannot find in malaysia, at least klang valley. i have ordered from the states. wish me luck.

This cable is useless unless you convert the VGA signal onto component output via converter, the cable itself won't do the job
