Sorry if something similar has been posted before, but I did a search and found nothing. So here goes. I need help. Hopefully someone is very skilled when it comes to video conversion devices...because I'm not.
I'm basically looking to hook up a Dreamcast, Gamecube, or Xbox to this screen-- http://www.apple.com/displays/acd23/ Most important is the Dreamcast and Gamecube.
One of my friends helped me a bunch, basically telling me the structure will go like this: console -> console vga box -> vga to dvi adapter -> dvi to adc adapter -> apple screen. Or console -> console vga box -> vga to adc adapter -> apple screen. Sounds simple enough. Yet, to get the highest video quality...which brands should I be looking at for the converters? Are the ones I put down below good?
Sooo....what I am need is...
--vga to dvi: http://www.gefen.com/kvm/product.jsp?prod_id=1310
--dvi to adc: http://www.apple.com/displays/adapter.html or http://www.devdepot.com/description.html?pcode=HDBDVI or http://www.gefen.com/kvm/product.jsp?prod_id=1203
--adc switchbox: http://www.drbott.com/prod/db.lasso?code=1111-MSAD
And if I wanted multiple systems hooked up, I could always have a vga switchbox that stems the systems into the chain: http://www.pcconnection.com/scripts...oduct_id=277580 or http://www.cablesnmor.com/video-switch-box.html
Or..............................
--vga to adc: http://www.gefen.com/kvm/product.jsp?prod_id=1301
--adc switchbox: http://www.drbott.com/prod/db.lasso?code=1111-MSAD
--vga switchbox that stems the systems into the chain: http://www.pcconnection.com/scripts...oduct_id=277580 or http://www.cablesnmor.com/video-switch-box.html
Is this even possible?
Thanks everyone!
