Anybody has experimented with the USB 2.0 to VGA adapter (http://www.telegnosis.jp/usb_vga/usb2vga.html) from Telegnosis (http://www.telegnosis.jp) and referenced in this thread (https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=7321)?
This gizmo is sold rebranded by:- Sitecom (http://www.sitecom.com/) CN-105
- USBgear (http://www.usbgear.com/USBG-SVGA2.html)
- Tritton (http://www.trittonsales.com/products/TRIUV100.htm)
Some details maybe gathered from the item five of this discussion (http://www.xbitlabs.com/discussion/937.html).
It looks like a very viable alternative to the sloooow unusable CF VGA adapters which are suitable only for presentation if comments I read about it are true.
-
? Even if we had drivers for this device, then the original problems remains that the CF interface is too slow and that's why the CF-VGA card in the first place is slow. (please correct if wrong)
-
You are wrong (you asked me, no). I am talking about USB 2.0 to VGA not CF-VGA.
-
Hi dsavard. I understand that you are talking about USB - VGA converter. I am assuming you wish to connect this to your clamshell (oops seems you have a 6000, my mistake) and to do that you would need to go CF - USB - VGa... hence CF limitations.
Since though, you want to use the usb host (grrr, i want a usb host), this may prove viable although the host is usb1.1 and thus limited bandwidth? Keeping in mind though, that there have been usb-tv cards over usb1...
-
The 6000l has a usb host adapter at the bottom of the unit, thus bypassing the need for a cf card. I believe he means to use that instead.
-
but that usb host adapter on the bottom is only usb 1.1.. not 2.0
