Guys the Xbox 360 will output to the Dell 30" however the black screen is caused by an unsupported resolution as the monitor is very dumb (ie it has no logic for scaling etc of its own - its simply a panel). What you need to do is first set the res to output to 1280x768 (using another monitor or something for eg) THEN connect to the monitor and it works. However, as the screen really needs 1280x800 to work (ie you are 32 rows of pixels short) you get a strange bar of extra video at the bottom of the screen where the top of the image starts repeating itself. This is not a problem however and you can play games perfectly well. I have this setup all the time when my mate brings his xbox over to play.

            How do they even manage that? It's a fucking DVI in! NT by Entropy Stew 07/06/2009, 6:36pm PDT NEW
                Plus scaling unit, OSD renderer. And maybe a decoder that isn't needed for DVI! NT by Ray of Light 07/07/2009, 8:24am PDT NEW
