I am hoping someone can help me out with this. I want to get the male and female connectors for the 15khz and 24khz connections on the chassis for my New Astro City, so that I can install a switch beneath the control panel to easily switch between low and medium res, instead of going back behind the cab.

Does anyone hve the connectors part number from mouser or something?

Also, how good would an xbox360 look in medium res, do you think Marvel 3 would look decent? :)

Your best bet is here:

If by medium res you mean 24khz, the xbox360 probably doesn't even output that mode. You probably will have to put it in 480i mode (15khz) to work on a new astro city.

It probably won't look bad, as usually downscaling yields much better results than upscaling, but it won't look anywhere near as good on a HDTV and plus it's a 16:9 game.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think you'll get an Xbox 360 to work on anything other than a 31k monitor.

As far as the connector, could you take a picture?

I'm sure xbox360 has a 480i mode, even the ps3 has one.

You can definitely do this when going from scart to jamma.

Thanks but that is just another website, I am looking for the part numbers, specifically. I'm sure they're on mouser or digikey but I am not a sorcerer so I can't figure out exactly what the parts are.

The guys at arcade otaku found some on ebay but I am looking for a place that is 1) in the U.S., and 2) won't make me order 20 parts when I need three small plastic connectors.

Here is the link though if anyone can help, it is as close as I have gotten:
