ps3 to egret III

Post by Halvie »

I am thinking about getting a egret III to play SFIV through my ps3. I am not sure what type of cable I should get for connection the ps3 to the egret's monitor.

I heard that the Egert's monitor is 480i. It seems like all the ps3 vga cables do not support 480i (http://www.mayflash.com/vgabox/vga004/vga004.htm).

Should I get the ps3 component cables and then get a component to vga adapter (http://www.provantage.com/infocus-sp-ve ... NFB08M.htm).

If you know of a cable that works well could you please give me a link

Thanks

Egret 3 = 15/24/31khz

31khz = 640x480 = 480p

UK PS3's only output 576p, not 480p. 576p does sync on my AWSD, but not on my Naomi. So you might be in luck. Best option is to use a us/Japanese PS3 or a 360 as they all output 480p via a vga cable.
