RGB over KAT5

[steve_parsons2000]

Hi guys,

I'm an existing user of KAT5 to send S-VIDEO down from my study into
my lounge (which works great). I've just bought a plasma screen
(yippee) & now want to send RGB down in the same way.

I'm thinking of buying a RGB->VGA converter from
<a href="http://www.rgbtosvideo.com/";>http://www.rgbtosvideo.com/</a>
&amp; trying to get Keith to build me a pair
of KAT5 VGA units. This will allow me to connect to the plasma's VGA
input.

Has anyone else got a similar set up ? Any problems or advice ? My
alternative is to send down component video but I hear RGB is better.

Another related question is whether anyone knows of a good RGB SCART
IR controlled switcher (2 or more in &amp; 1 out).

Yet another question (I'm on a bit of a roll here) is whether I can
send the line level subwoofer out from an AV receiver over KAT5 using
an MCA set of units (or even the spare stereo connections of my S-
VIDEO units). I can then connect up to an active subwoofer in the
lounge. I believe I can but it wouldn't be the first time I've
talked crap.

Any advice appreciated,

Cheers,

Steve
