The breakout I linked is only $20, and uses virtually the same electrical interface as a VGA DAC. (The only difference is that it also takes a clock signal.) You'd hardly be saving any money with the janky VGA-to-HDMI setup, and the image quality would be worse.
- kragen 4y agoAgreed, but the shitty electronics store around the corner from me doesn't have the breakout you linked in stock, and if I try to get it shipped from overseas they'll ask me to pay with a credit card I don't have, and then it will get held up in customs and probably returned to the sender. Third world problems, I know, but they're still real problems.
