monitors. 

Provides  video  and  audio  pass-through  function  to  switch  image  and  sound  at  the 

same time between PC and the Xbox by pressing one single button.   

Provides exceptional 480i EasyView

TM

 feature for effortless setup. 

Includes stereo audio and digital audio outputs with complete support for the Xbox's 

Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound. 

Provides composite video output for convenient connecting to a traditional TV display 

(480i). 

Offers complete functionality with a simple cable connection. No need to prepare an 

additional Xbox high Definition AV Pack or any power adaptor.   

Provides advanced signal processing. Works perfectly with all versions of the Xbox in 

accurate color and brightness. 

Provides  VESA  standard  separate  H/V  sync.  and  composite  sync.  to  VGA  for 

enhanced compatibility. 

Provides Mode Indicator LED, which shows the current display mode (480p, 720p, or 

1080i). 

Can the X2VGA+ work with LCD monitors? 

Due  to  480p,  720p,  and  1080i  display  modes  are  not  the  common  working  modes  for 

computers; therefore, whether the LCD monitors can function normally, really depends on 

their circuits, and if they give supports to these modes. According to the testing results, we 

conclude  that  over  90%  of  LCD  monitors  can  function  normally  in  480p  mode,  and  the 

newer or larger LCD monitors have a higher possibility to work in 720p and 1080i modes 

correctly

should  attribute  to  their  better  drive  circuits.  Moreover,  for  the  LCD  monitors 

manufactured in the recent two years, the possibility even reaches as high as 80% among 

the 17

 or above LCD monitors. 

What are the differences between the X2VGA+

TM

 and common VGA 

TV boxes? 

Common VGA boxes, even those with a component input, convert signals on the basis of 

traditional  TV  signals  (480i).  The  X2VGA+

,  however,  converts  signals  in  their  native
