Will this work in hooking up my PS2/Wii to my computer monitor?

It's a 19" Hyundai with DVI input.

You're running your video through a tiny car? Huh?



j/k.. hehe.

Offhand, I would say no... it looks to me like that device is meant to go the other way.. to take PC data and convert it to component for display on a HDTV. The product description doesn't mention anything about going the other way.

Might want to hunt down the manufacturer's website and ask them directly whether it can work both ways.
 
I know the other consoles had DVI options. With the Wii being next-gen, it shouldn't be hard to source one a few months from now 👍

They've said that the Wii don't have any sort of DVI hook-up, though, so a chance of that looks grim.

I think I'm going to grab one, though. I found em on ebay for $7 👍 It might work, might not. It would be sweet if it does though 👍
 
Does it work? I wanna connect my lcd pc screen to my 360.
 
That device will NOT take component as input and then output to DVI. There are converter/scalers that go that direction, but they are hundreds of dollars.
