I'm at home, thus don't have the tech docs handy to see if these include what was asked for, but I'll pass on a warning we received when I took the hardware support course. The length of the video cable is critical and it should not be trifled with lightly. The cable is more than simply a connecting length of wire, it is suitably terminated and carefully tuned to the frequencies required for that crisp display and altering its length may/probably will degrade your picture image. On the other hand, if you know what you're doing, are careful about buffering and maybe get lucky you'll be okay :-) - peterd
