Hello and thanks in advance to those who can help. :) I have a problem that sounds simple enough, but I can't find what I need anywhere. I'm trying to hook an XBOX video game system to my television AND a PC monitor to produce a display on both at the SAME time. I can find devices that produce HD quality video on a monitor from an XBOX, but not one that can display on a television at the same time. (I'm not looking for the HD quality on the television.) I need a way to split an s-video signal in two, and then run one split to the tv and run a second split into a monitor OR a device that takes s-video and converts it to 15-pin display. There is a product called x2vga which would be perfect if it could display on the television at the same time as the monitor. If anyone can help me or knows of a way to do this OR any products that exist that would help me accomplish this disered effect, your help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.
