Ok, this is a computer monitor, it will also do video.
What is the resolution of the X-box? Dose it have settings?
" Xbox component video from the receiver to the LCD"
How is the Xbox connected to the reciver??? What a video cable?? If so the standard video is 320x240.
Try using S-video or composit directly to the LCD and see what that looks like.
Probably getting a HDTV LCD would have been a better choice. John
I bought a Dell UltraSharp 2405FPW LCD Panel with the intent of connecting XBOX and next gen XBOX 360/ps3 (when it comes in the market) to play 480p, 720p 1080i/p resolution supported games. I easily connected the Xbox component video from the receiver to the LCD panel, but the resolution was poor. later i come to know this monitor is not HD ready.
please somebody help me. how can i make this monitor support HD resolutions (480p, 720p, 1080p/i). is there any device to like hdtv tuner to connect my xbox to get best picture quality on my lcd.
please note i'm only intereseted to plays games on this monitor, not watch tv.
please help...
