hiya, long time listener first time caller ect, and I wouldn't come to these forums without a question. I work for a Nascar "simulator" for a major company that uses an xbox360 (one) as its game source. The simulator itself is basically a stock car that we redid the interior on, threw 360 steering wheels and pedals ect. and put them in the respective left and right seats of the car with two monitors running to either side (small monitors about 12") and then ran a feed from it to the back. The problem about this is that using only one 360 has posed problems with split screen and thusly doesnt allow us to fully utilze the car.

My question is whether I can go in and rewire the output cord of the 360 and splice in another to set up a sort of dual monitor set up or if it would be more cost effective about just talking to my company about giving us funds for a scond and syslinking it all.

But, then the problem arises that many games for the 360 dont even allow system linking anymore, and setting up a VPN to just get two players playing in the same car seems like way too big a hassle. Any suggestions?

There is a video cord made for the 360 that has a VGA plug on one end. You could use that and plug it into a device that splits the signal among several computer monitors. Then plug LCD monitors into that device. I think you'll wind up with the same image on all of the screens, but it's one way to get an image from one 360 onto more than one screen. I've seen the devices at Fry's and at several online computer stores, but can't remember what brand makes them.
