We need to display pc images on a plasma set, what is the best way to accomplish this? We probably won't be able to run a 15 pin to the plasma because it needs to go under ground. We will be able to fish a coax or cat5 or 6 through a chase. If we use a scan converter, what specs should we use and how well do they work? Any help would be much appreciated.

It's gonna look like crap run over twice unless you wire it up with th RGB cable. Depending on the length of the run; why don't you remove the ends of the 15 pin, run the wire, and resolder...PRESTO!

this is the simplest thing to do,, all you need to do is get 5 conductor rgbhv cable ,,some bnc connectors and an adapter cable to go from your 15 pin computer connection to the rgbhv cable,,see how it works ,depending on the run you may need a line driver from someone like extron.

Or better yet, Why not transmit 15Pin RGBHV across a Cat 5?
