    component video via VGA plug on pj..

    Greetings again, a friend bought a Epson LCD pj (the new 800 by 600 model), he is looking for the adapter plug that has component video in to allow him to use it for DVD's he seems to think that this plug should be in the neioghborhood of $100 CDN, this sounds outrageously expensive. Is there any product out there that is affordable?

    (I'm thinking that this cable adapter may have 5 RCA connectors as well, for RGB HV and that the pj will be able to select RGB or Y, PbR, etc.

    anybody?

    That's called a VGA breakout cable. Let me see what I can do bent. I'm not currently building VGA of any kind. But I do have a source on some things.

      I could be wrong on this but if you're going from component to a VGA don't you need an adapter to handle the sync issues? CRT PJ's have 5 RCA inputs to handle sync that you won't have with regular component outputs. That $100 price tag is about right as far as I know.

        Andrew, you are probably right in most of these cases, however this pj is capable of accepting component video (480P, 720P, 1080i) into it's VGA input - there is a user menu selection that allows it to do this just like the X1 does.
        (this is as far as I can understand).
        I don't think the pj even has component video RCA's

          This might be the cable you need:

            I think that that is the very one I need.
