I want to set up my PS3 with my VGA monitor (it's a good one). The way i want to do it = With a HDMI cabel that ends with DVI and on that i put an adapter that makes it VGA. But my question is.. Will i loose to much? Or can i still enjoy the graphic.
DVI carries both digital and analog signal. thats why there are dvi/vga adapters. HDMI is digital only. so even if you connect it to a vga theres no analog signal for the vga to carry.
He's right, HDCP will prevent any game or blu-ray from showing on your monitor. Even if you could convert the signal, there is no HDCP in most DVI connections and it's never in a VGA connection, so the signal wouldn't display. HDCP is in HDMI and a few DVI ports and allows copywrite protection, kind of like Macrovision did with VHS. The result: no picture. You know you're having this issue is you hear the sound but don't see the picture.

You're wrong about the games, The HD-Fury in my link has a video showing it working on a PS3 and VGA input on a monitor. Click the link and see.

He meant the connections on the monitor itself have to be HDCP, the only reason that converter works is cuz it converts the signal to analog and handshakes with the HDCP on the HDMI before it goes to the monitor giving it the OK to display picture
