I'm looking to stream video games, mostly older systems with composite/S-video outputs, but also a lot of games that can output in 480p and widescreen. However, what I am NOT willing to sacrifice is the quality of my personal viewing experience. I realize I will have to generate a second set of cables somewhere in the chain, but any loss in quality or lag on my end is not acceptable. Obviously, I don't care too much what it looks like by the time it gets to my computer, because streaming is low res anyway. Just so you know, all of my composite, S-video, and component sources run out of my audio receiver as component.

In particular, I was looking at this device: http://www.ramelectronics.net/audio-video/video-converters/component-video-to-vga-rgb-.../prod9A65.html

Is anyone familiar with it? I'm assuming that it allows a component source to pass through to the TV, and then outputs VGA simultaneously.

So then, would a 480p OR 480i signal sent over that device (or similar) be recognized by a device like this one: http://www.ramelectronics.net/audio-video/audio-video-computer/pc-tv/pc-to-video-conve...odGEZ1000.html

Then I can get it to my computer using a common S-video capture device.

I've had ideas about how I'd do this, and this is the simplest one I've come up with. But my concerns regard whether a VGA box that converts to composite/S-video would understand a Y Pr Pb component source, and also whether a widescreen game would be properly letterboxed or if it would be vertically stretched.

Any ideas?
