Is it possible to get any of the hi-def settings when using a PAL system? From what I remember (haven't messed with the xbox for a little while) it wasn't possible, but I'm hoping I'm wrong.

Cheers for any help

What you can do is switching your PAL/NTSC setting in the EEPROM to enable the HD output. But to do that you have to be sure that your TV will support NTSC (480i), ETV (480p) or HD (720p, 1080i).

The TV isn't a problem. It'll take 720p and 1080i no problem. I guess I'd need to set the xbox to 720p due to the memory issues, but other than that, it shouldn't be a problem.

Would this be an issue with Pal games, though?

And also, what output cable would be needed?

Cheers again.
