Hello everybody, I'm a new user (both of this forums and of an iMac).

I use the iMac also as my room tv. I own a Xbox360 and have been using the composite cable (Red, White and Yellow) to play using the iMac but I want to connect mi Xbox using the component cable (Red, Green and Blue).

Does anyone know how can I accomplish this? Some component to firewire or component to USB adaptor with no latency?

Thank you very much...

By the way, I'm using a 24'' iMac with OSX tiger and using elgato's EyeTV as my TV turner.

Hi there and welcome !

I haven't found anything yet that will allow you to do it, with no latency !

The way you are doing it is the only good way I can find at the minute, sorry !

regards

Ric
