    Looking for monitor to support component, VGA and sound?

    Basically I have an Xbox 360 that runs on component (the old version, so it does not support HDMI).

    I need a screen that will support the 360 bearing in mind that the sound is running alongside the component so the screen will need sound next to the component inputs.

    I had a look at the Hyundai W240D-PVA and it supports all the inputs I need (component etc) and the sound input is right next to the component plugs, perfect so far.

    Just one thing that I'm confused about is the difference between the normal W240D and the W240D-PVA. Does anyone know the differences apart from the fact that they use different panels?

    PVA: Computer hardware and software at amazing prices, available online from Scan Computers UK
    TN(?): Computer hardware and software at amazing prices, available online from Scan Computers UK

    I just want to confirm that the PVA screen has exactly the same inputs as the TN panel shown in this review?: YouTube - Hyundai W240D 24-inch Widescreen LCD Monitor

    Another thing is the fact that Scan list "1 x Audio Line-In" on the PVA panel, but not on the TN panel yet they both have built in speakers?

    Thanks,
    Craig.

    Asus PW201 - 20.1" 1680x1050 PVA screens, with Component, VGA, DVI, Composite, S-video, built-in speakers, 2xRCA and 1x 3.5mm line in for audio. Plus headphone socket on the side, 3 USB sockets and 1.3mega pixel webcam. And it can swivel, tilt, height adjust and rotate to portrait.

    I have 2 of them on my PC and they're brilliant. Have my PC connected to both, fiancée's PC connected to one of them (so she can use that whilst I use mine). Haven't got a 360 but have used a PS2 on them over composite. They also do Picture in Picture so I guess you could even feed a TV signal over composite and watch that PinP over your 360 from component - I don't know, haven't tried it.

    BUT the audio from the speakers is, er, not good

    Re: Looking for monitor to support component, VGA and sound?

    I had a W240D originally, but when I sent it back I ordered the PVA version to replace it. I can confirm that they both have exactly the same inputs, and that the only thing different is the panel. The W241 has usb ports but otherwise is exactly the same as the W240-PVA version.
