Hi list,

it generally works, if the monitors have analogue inputs which are =
capable
of synchronizing to low video frequencies (which are I think 30,6kHz
horizontally). Another issue is that they should have good =
interpolation
algorithms, as there are no LCDs currently available as fas as I know =
which
have pixel resolutions lower than 1024*768 Pixels, but a WP30 video
resolution is even below that.

We found it hard to find appropriate devices, the last I have found was =
an
Eye-Q monitor which was at the end of it's life cycle a year ago. Maybe
external Video Frequency doublers are a solution (BlackBox), but I have
never tested something like that.

Hope that helps.
