    VGA to RCA

    1st try at installing a car pc and monitor into my Landrover Discovey 3! Just bought a Lilliput Blaxtream Car PC. Need to connect it to my Eonon Touch screen monitor.Lilliput uses VGA and Touch screen monitor uses single RCA Video input. Is there such a device that will covert from VGA to single RCA. Or should I be looking at another method of connecting the both. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

    Linton.

    The image will suck and you won't be able to use the touchscreen...you can buy a converter though (VGA -> Composite).

    For a carpc you would want a VGA touchscreen which uses VGA or DVI for video signal and USB for the touchscreen.

    What are you talking about? Where did you see any proof of a USB connection on the monitor? What do you mean by "featuring"? Are you sure you know what monitor you are talking about?

    Sorry for the mistake.. i dont think i am sure which item you are talking about.
    i apologize if i created any confusion~

    because if there IS touchscreen on the monitor i assumed that there is an usb cable
    but, assuming is bad.. i know.. so.. sorry
    Oh yeah rid with the blues baby~

    Check this FAQ out: Why you can't use your OEM touchscreen to control your PC

    In addition, the image will suck.

    I guess this is a touchscreen monitor + dvdplayer etc... people call these things touchscreens too. What's the model number?
