I&#x27;ve been fiddling with this idea for a while and have basically come to the conclusion direct VGA capture isn&#x27;t worth the trouble.  There are VGA to HDMI converters available for about $20-$30 that do the job surprisingly well.  There used to be a number of VGA -&gt; digital chips available (TI TVP7002, etc) but they&#x27;ve all been EOL&#x27;d or NRND (Not recommended for new designs.)<p>For HDMI&#x2F;DVI capture at this scale, the best option seems to be an FPGA based system.  There are several boards available that have the necessary hardware but are expensive (relative to a 1-port IP-KVM), power hungry, or large (or all of the above.)  The Digilent Zybo may have enough to pull it off (and has the ARM cores to boot) but is still a bit on the pricey &#x2F; power hungry side.  I&#x27;m hoping the new Snickerdoodle Zynq based boards will be able to do the job (with an add-on board)<p>Regarding using the Pi2, it might work, especially if it can be fed via the camera interface.  The lack of USB-OTG (linux gadget support for KB &#x2F; Mouse &#x2F; Mass Storage) limits the usefulness somewhat.<p>I&#x27;ve been hopeful about the Beaglebone Black &#x2F; X15 due to the USB-OTG and the tons of extra IO.<p>The other board of interest is the Dragonboard 410C - it can supposedly capture at 1080p60 (more than enough for the average system you&#x27;ll stick a KVM on) but I&#x27;m not sure what that means explicitly (yet.)  It does have USB-OTG (though it can&#x27;t do USB Host &#x2F; Device simultaneously.)
