hi there i would really appreciate if you helped me out with this.. I just got the same dr.bott from amazon.. before I connected it to my imac i changed the resolution on the xbox to 720p as thats the resolution it supports.. and now when i connect everything up and press 'command f2' and nothing happens? is there something that i have to set up on the imac with the resolution? this is so frustrating.. thannnnks 

[Kehaan]

@demin8512 I have never tryed the solution with a Xbox 360. Sorry

[stuprint]

i would like to play my ps3 on my 27" imac but the cable ur using is 720p ive tried looking for a 1080p atleast and cant find one. the screen is capable of 1440 resalution, 720 is too low. 1080p is standard.

[Kehaan]

@stuprint It is not possible to use 1080p. I have looked at Kanex XD, and the reason is: " Here is why: the EDID (extended display identification data) embedded in the display only accepts two input resolutions: 2560x1440 and 1280x720. The first resolution is not supported by PS3 and Xbox because the highest resolution output they support is 1920x1080, or 1080p. But since the iMac doesn't recognize 1080p input resolution, the sources must be set to 720p for proper video pass through."

I set the PS3 to 720p. But when i play (PES 2010 / 2011, MW2) the quality is really bad. Why might that be?

kanex xd is much better

[Jaorun]

@xGadgetTime

Why do you think so

I think it is the same Technical Base

[matheusmno]

Does it work with the 20 inch iMac??

[Kehaan]

@matheusmno I only think it works with the 27" iMac :)

[St3rb3iLf3]

what cable is it? what are the graphics like? I hope 1080p ?

[DudeofWonders123]

Hey there, will this work well with the 2008 20 inch iMac, 2.4ghz core 2 duo, and 4 gb DDR2 RAM? I wouldn't want the game to lag while playing it.. So would it work well? :)

[Kehaan]

@DudeofWonders123 I only think it works with the 27" iMac :)

[jcred32]

How does your sound work? When i used Dr. Bott my sound was spotty.

[Kehaan]

@jcred32 Hey, when i used it, the sound was fine :)

[appeltje126]

Does it work on the 21,5 inch imac with the Mini dvi to HDMI with a ps3 or xbox?

Dr. Bott Mini DVI-naar-HDMI-adapter on apple.com

Thanks for helping me.

[sinanronaldo]

Whats name of song?

[josepister]

will this work on a led cinema display

[Kehaan]

@josepister The iMac is an computer. Thats why this cable are needed. The LED Cinema Display is only a display, nothing else :) So i think you need another cable for that. But i am not sure.

[josepister]

@Kehaan i looked on the apple website (UK) and there is a dr bott cable specifically for the LED cinema display

[Kehaan]

@josepister Cool, then you should buy one of those i guess :)

[josepister]

@Kehaan thanks for the vid anyway

[xZaNiiN]

Hey does this work in a 21inch iMac :) ?

[Kehaan]

@xZaNiiN Only with 27" iMac :)

[ApplePanda94]

Will this work on a MacBook Unibody (Polycarbonate) ?

[Kehaan]

@ApplePanda94 Hey, i dont think so. As the DrBott is special made for the 27" iMac.

[Kehaan]

TEST*

[MEGAIBSEN]

Hej Kehaan du er fra danmark ikke ?

jeg ville bare spørge hvorfra du har købt den hdmi konverter ?

[daviruchu]

where did you get the cable from. and whats the resolution once you connect the ps3 does it stay the same

[shastin7]

is this in 1080P ?

[Kehaan]

@shastin7 Hey, no its 720p, none of the cables on the marked supports any highter resolution for the PS3 and Xbox360. But still its a lot clearer picture then it is on my 32" LCD 720p TV.
