This is a copy of portions of my thread over at BitBuilt https://bitbuilt.net/forums/index.php?threads/xboxdvi.3304/ As some of you may know, the original xbox is really lacking in video output modes for the modern era. It is only capable of analog video out, and doesn't even support VGA through that. Early versions of the xbox use a CX25871 as the video encoder, which can take a variety of digital inputs and in turn outputs analog video. https://html.alldatasheet.com/html-pdf/153349/CONEXANT/CX25871/384/1/CX25871.html My suspicion is that the xbox uses the highest quality of these potential inputs, RGB24. If that turns out to be the case, I should be able to use the Texas Instruments TFP410 to turn these signals into DVI https://www.ti.com/product/TFP410 End goal is to have a board with a BOM of under $20 that I can then install in my absurd stack of xboxen. The catch: This is my first circuit design project and my first PCB design project, so I'm starting out way over my head. Wish me luck, I guess. -------------------------------------------------- I've since found that my initial assumptions were incorrect, and I've made it to my second prototype. It still has issues, but I'll find out soon enough if I'm on the right track. --------------------------------------------------
