They will surprise you in the mail in 2 months and you'll feel inspired then to tackle it again. --- End quote --- https://www.amazon.com/Xbox-Component-Cable-Bulk-Packaging/dp/B000E61G4O/ref=pd_cp_63_3?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B000E61G4O&pd_rd_r=E7NXX6HY3CA9EPRGZ2JJ&pd_rd_w=iCYs2&pd_rd_wg=L1Mop&psc=1&refRID=E7NXX6HY3CA9EPRGZ2JJ My 5 year old LG 32 inch TV hdmi board took a dump, and the only two hd ports are component and vga. I picked up a component switch box from goodwill for about $3.43 and everything just works fine, I just need to find a component for the xbox one and i am golden. Component looks pretty good. |

Well I'm wondering about how the conversion is done... if they are using the rgb lines of the wii or component out. If they are converting the component I might be able to modify one to work with the xbox, which, afaict won't do any form of rgb out. |

It probably just going to use default resolution straight from the pins. Good luck with whatever you decide to go with and will check back on this post in a few years. Wait here. :cheers: |
