Frequently Asked Questions
1. My screen scrolls when I connect a PS2 to the XRGB-2+ with a Component or D-Terminal Cable.
Go to the PS2 "System Configuration" menu and scroll through the options until you reach "Component Video Out." Change the setting to "Y Cb/Pb Cr/Pr" and your screen will output properly.

2. Should I plug the XRGB-2+ into a surge suppressor 24/7?
Yes. Absolutely. Do it. As with all other sensitive electronic equipment, the XRGB-2+ should be protected from electrical spikes by plugging it into a surge suppressor.

3. The white text on the XRGB menu looks jaggy. Is this normal?
Yes. The original XRGB and XRGB-2 had nice, clean text. Not so for the XRGB-2+.

4. I have an LCD monitor and the image from the XRGB-2+ looks horrible.
We've received a couple of reports of LCD monitors exhibiting poor contrast and image quality when used with the XRGB-2+. Acer, Microtek, Viewsonic and some Dell monitors appear to have this problem. To reassure yourself that it is indeed the LCD monitor and not the XRGB-2+, please test the XRGB-2+ with a standard CRT monitor.

Anonymous: Quality Picture for Over 3 Years
I tried many other SVideo to VGA adapters and found the picture was blurry and had limited color quality. After taking the plunge with the XRGB, I have never looked back. The picture is outstanding. The color is full and clean; almost as if the original image was designed for VGA. Even the yellow composite input looks good. I have since purchased RGB and component cables (it supports both formats) for various systems and these images look even better. I even have the TV going through it! Control the color, number of scanlines, brightness, blackness, contrast, size and center the picture -- all separately through the simple menu using your included remote control. Don't hesitate to pick up one of these.
jbowdle (1): Delivers amazing picture for the Neo Geo
I was looking for a way to use my Neo Geo RGB cable which I had gotten sometime back to play my games in RGB, however there are NO 21 pin Jp TV's in the US. Trust me, I've looked. The lack of RGB TV's in the US is what attracted me to the XRGB2. It (among other things) takes a Jp 21 pin RGB input and converts it to VGA. The resulting picture is amazing. I had no trouble finding a large, cheap VGA monitor and the kicker is that it looks better than an RGB TV would anyway. If you have a 21 pin RGB cable for a system and want it to look its best, the XRGB2 is the way to go.
PC Engine Fan X! (1): XRGB-2 is the one to get for playing arcade game on your Supergun...
After asking around on chat forums, the question was which XRGB upscan convertor should I get: XRGB-1, XRGB-2 or the XRGB2+ for playing arcade JAMMA game on my Supergun? I was told to get the discountinued XRGB-2 version as that's the one to get to play JAMMA games on via a VGA monitor. Of course, a 15khz CGA monitor would do the same trick even better as it displays as the same as an arcade monitor.
