Title: Hanatrex Polo 25" and Xbox 360
Post by: Mark Thomas on April 21, 2012, 05:15:20 am

How would I go about connecting a Hanatrex Polo 25" arcade monitor to a Jtag Xbox 360? I currently have a PC, jpac and arcade graphics card from Ultimarc but can't figure out best way to set up Xbox? Also would there be a way to quickly swap between PC and Mame to Jtag Xbox?

Any thoughts and advice would be very much appreciated

You probably need a SCRAT TO JAMMA device

Thanks buddy, where would I get one from and would the scart option give the best visual quality?

Yeah Scart its better than , S-Video and composite. Im not sure using VGA cable from the 360 will give a low enough resolution, Ideally for an arcade look your wanting a 240p singal from the 360, and dont thing VGA can do that. Someone chip in here if they know more??
