Not only that: If the decoded picture is transferred uncompressed,
640x480x25framesx24bit results in almost 180MBit/s on the USB. That's
quite a lot...

If there is an extrenal USB-to-VGA-adapter that can decode video I would
assume two things:

It will need external power supply. 2.5 Watts, as delivered by USB ports
will not suffice.

It will, being a quite rarely sold item not be significantly cheaper than
a full little computer from mass production.

Anyway, good luck!
