or the rgb input ONLY outputs 15khz?
anyone?  :)

See I use a switch box to switch between dreamcast and pc.
I wanna use my remote the switch.
there is 2 vga sockets(15pin) but the bottom one is "vga output".

The switch box works and all but still annoying.why would I use if I can switch with my remote :D. anyhey.....

Yes Snack ;) , you can use that cable. That is used for RGB2. RGB1 is for the 15 pin VGA connection. Depending on where you buy that VGA->BNC cable, it could cost you. Look for a cheap price. At best buy it is like $40 but elsewhere online it is like $10-$15. I would have to look at mine when I get home to see about the 15khz. I think it is 30khz also though. Good luck.

Well, according to my manual, it says:

Synchronization

Horizontal               15.5 - 38 kHz (Automatically)

Vertical                    40 - 100 Hz (Automatically)

So, yes, it should be fine at 31Khz. Good luck.
