My notes say "Keep in mind that the DVI connection standard only specs out to 8-bits. HDMI extends this capability". Is that correct? Is DVI limited to 8 bits/color? How many bits/color does HDMI allow? Which brings up: has HDMI been considered? > head3: SVHS / component video > (low speed 10bit DAC for SD television quality) I suspect you mean s-video rather than svhs. > On the other side, when the high-speed analog will be needed, then > constructing a box which accepts dual link DVI and contains fast DAC > would be OK even if the price will be higher (remember - one who need > such a signal will have a relatively expensive monitor).

It also would keep the signal digital longer. The analog coax could be shorter, for less degradation. The external box could be built with whatever connectors and impedance desired. _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
