XBOX / XBOX 360 HD VGA Query...

[$c8t@]

Hi, I Was Wondering If anyone Could Shed Some Light On A Little Query I Have

Basicaly I Have A BenQ PB2250 Projector To Which I Connect My Xbox / Xbox 360 / PS2 Upto

At The Moment I Use A HDTV VGA Cable For MY 360 And A HD Component To VGA Converter For MY XBOX So I Can Use It At 480p

Now, As My Projector Only Has 1 VGA Input, As You Can Imagine Its A Bit Of A Pain Swapping The VGA Connectors In And Out If I Want To Use Either Console ETC

I Was Considering The Idea Of A 4-Port VGA Switch Box To Save All The Hassle But What I Really Want To Know Is...

Can I Use This ? And Will A "Standard" One Work, Will It Still Allow Me TO Use My XBOX at 480p Etc... Do I Need Any Diff Cables ? Or Will Normal VGA From The 4-port Box To Pro work Fine ?
I Appreciate I Will Lose A Small Amount Of Quality As Going Through A Box Isnt The Same As A Direct Connection...

btw this is the Componenet To VGA Box I'm Using...

Many Thanks!!

I'm not entirely sure on that, but for the reasons of swapping cables around I bought the 4-Port KVM from D-Link from overclockers (DKVM-4K Switch).

Works perfectly for me.

Stupid question here but, can I hook up the xbox 360 to my LCD monitor (has DVI input) and if so what will the quality be like?

You could possibly use a DVI to VGA converter, as the xbox lead is VGA not DVI.. i know the VGA cable is male, but dont know about a converter... sorry

As long as the DVI port it DVI-I, then it would work fine, and it would be HD Quality.
