Connecting G5 to HDTV - DVI-Component adapter?

JesterJJZ said:
Can I use this to connect my G5's DVI to my HD set via component? I know it wouldn't be all that for critical monitoring but it would make a sweet preview monitor. I have a 30'' HD CRT .

I think what you could get is the new Matrox MXO- They claim it converts DVi to Component or HDMI with correct Broadcast quality colors, and also accelerate dvcprohd rendering on the G5 (Or powerbook G4!)

Yeah I've seen that...it's $1000 bucks though. If I'm spending that much I might as well get a decklink. If the MXO was like half that then I'd totally spring for it.
 
What's great about the MXO also is that it will convert DVI to HD/SD SDI. If you consider the price and compare it to the professional features that it has, it's well worth it.

In fact we have a DVXUSER discount on the MXO $969!

I recenty posted a description on the FCP forum.
