HDFury HDMI to VGA

[OtomoTenzi]

For around $250 - $300, you can buy a brand new TV or monitor with at least 2 HDMI inputs on it... : P

So why even fuck with this BULLSHIT???

[NamelessFragger]

@OtomoTenzi Because that Sony GDM-FW900 in the video is better than any display you can buy for $250-300 in image quality, that's why. Chances are the displays you're looking at are cheap TN LCDs that don't even deserve to be in the presence of the penultimate FD Trinitron CRT.

Then there's the folks with older HDTVs, likely rear-or-front-projection CRTs. Do you expect them to get a smaller, likely inferior display for HDMI?

That said, the HDFury IS expensive. Gotta bring that down to $100.

[OtomoTenzi]

@NamelessFragger

If it's just about the inputs/compatibilty issues, then there many are other less expensive alternatives; such as convertor boxes and things of that sort.

use a compoent to vga you fucking moron!

[NamelessFragger]

@231karl

Doesn't do much good for sources that insist on HDCP, mostly Blu-ray or PS3-related. Blame the movie and consumer electronics industries for making that crap to force people to buy new displays to replace perfectly good ones like that GDM-FW900.

@231karl

YEARGH!!!

[ismaelkhan]

That is not a fat old monitor, its the sony flagship crt GDM-FW900

[SerzantasLTU]

my cable doesent work it doesend show anything, is says check the connection :(

[guitarerik93]

you cant go from hdmi to vga because hdmi is digital and vga is analog so you would need to get a converter to change the signal from hdmi to vga

[asalistics]

i dont like that fat monitor , its old

[Eduardusz]

its not old its gay and fat.

[asalistics]

yes hate it

[NamelessFragger]

@asalistics

And that old, fat Sony GDM-FW900 kicks the everliving crap out of most displays on the market today in terms of image quality, which is the only thing that should matter on a monitor. I'd almost kill to have one for the ultimate gaming experience.

I'm all for flat panels that can surpass CRTs in image quality and refresh rates while tying on input lag, but there aren't any right now. And when they appear, they won't be LCDs.

[JshDav]

@asalistics so?... it's not your's so you don't have to worry about it...

[dizzydan1980]

Cool device, but i'm trying to find a way to connect my vga laptop to a hdmi tv. would this do it?

[wltrsjim]

@dizzydan1980 no

[stubbyant]

no as you can see he has a hdmi to DVI ----> DVI Female to VGA Female ---> computermonitor... if you wanted all of the the total you gonna need is bout 40 bucks.. you can get the hdmi to dvi from walmart for 15.00 then dvi to vga from radio shack for 13.49... make sure you got the correct male and females down.. it doesnt matter what order you get them in but a male has to link with a female

[JSully1996]

omg how can a CRT do 1080p ?!?

[Petchhyy]

They don't have a native resolution, so they can be set to basically any resolution.

[blackdiamondz93]

Its The Hd Fury That Enables the monitor to do this

[NamelessFragger]

@JSully1996

High-end CRTs like the GDM-FW900 shown (and certain CRT projectors) can easily handle a 1920x1080 signal at around 100 Hz, with even higher resolutions (at lower refresh rates) possible. Not all CRTs are pitiful SDTVs.

Good luck finding an FW900, though. Other than that and the few CRT HDTVs out there, most of the high-end ones (that can accept 2048x1536 signals, which 1080p fits into) are 4:3, which means letterboxed widescreen and eventually burn-in if you overdo it.

hey pal what lead or what ever do i need to do what your doin plz let me know pal and this SONG 10000000000000% BANGING WHATS IT CALLED :d:d:d PLZ TELL

[MrGirfes96]

@Sindo83 hey dude i wanna buy this i have hd monitor 1080p but ut has no speakers how am i sopposed to have sound with my ps3?

[mw2silentshot]

@warlockboyburns xbox and ps3 are configured to be able to use vga whereas most other things even computers may not be configured in the same way, I know this is an old post, but hopefully this helped out with an old problem.

[warlockboyburns]

it would be cool if they dropped the price to £50 ($100)

[blackdiamondz93]

It Would be even better if they dropped the hd fury to £15 then everyone would be able to afford it... even students that dont work

[humayun123]

Where are you getting the Audio for the ps3 from?

[richardbirch2007]

optical out by the look of it, if not then standard av out

[CoolColJ]

Is that a Sony Trinitron CRT monitor?

also - what refresh rate does the PS3 run on in 1080p with the CRT? Does it look flickery?

[taltigolt]

is that a sony monitor no its the best monitor known to man thats what it is

[hbh12]

where do you get hdfury cable? and did hdfury do the 1:1 pixel mapping or was it the SONY monitor?

[blackinya]

so you ran an HDMI to a VGA adapter to the monitor. How did you get the color decoded to be accepted by the VGA? I have VGA 1080i max and need to get the best quality.

[Sindo83]

HDFury is a converter. you d'ont need color decoded

[rkive612]
