RGsB from Wii?

I have an old CRT computer monitor that accepts RGBHV and RGsB inputs. (HP P920 is the monitor) I was wondering if a Wii (NTSC or PAL, I have both) could output RGsB at 480p Being the Wii doesn't have an H or V line for RGBHV (from what I understand) I'm willing to open it up as well and solder to the lines.

btw, I'm using a gamecube booter to boot games so the Wii is softmodded and can force progressive mode.
 
Hm. I know that the NTSC Wii offers composite video, S-video, and YPbPr, no RGB. And the PAL Wii offers composite video, YPbPr, and RGB, without S-video.
Yes, the Wii doesn't have H V output, just the R, G, and B lines on the PAL board. I'm not sure if it goes to 480p but I think it would make since that it would.
As far as I know, the Wii doesn't output composite sync at all, which unless I'm mistaken makes RGsB unachievable as well. There are small converters found in Wii VGA cables that take YPbPr and produce RGBHV, but the quality of that converter may not be great with some screens.
 
Interesting. So my VGA monitor has been accepting YPrPb this entire time? Im doubtful but its possible. I have it running in NTSC mode with it outputting component. So this must mean this monitor (strangely) supports component. Any way I can get a sync line(s) while its in 480p component to test and see if the monitor will sync on it? (the monitor supports SoG and Seperate.)
