Thanks for the welcome guys!
Nope, can't help you with French translation
I did, for the salient points (deeplinked throughout), albeit not directly to English, given this forum's predominantly German readership:
Incidentally the Yuraku repair centre seems to be in the Netherlands too, and having a word with them (preferably in their own language) should probably obviate the need for a hardware mod and unveil one through the OSD, as there must be some way how calibration has been accomplished at the factory in the first place. I'd doubt they could seriously consider this a trade secret.
If we do have to stick to the hardware mod, to save everyone the hassle of sourcing the components individually, somebody with a soldering iron and some time on their hands should consider making this circuitry by the dozen and selling them at €10 apiece or so.

@ lightner :
i hope you want to use dvi-D and not dvi-I, as the yuraku is not able to use dvi-I as it will not even fit.
Somebody said he cut out some pins of the dvi-i to make it fit, but i don't think that's a proper solution
Better use dvi-D (single link) cable.
Having tested a few, with otherwise poor to abysmal results, there is only one splitter cable which I found to actually work for adapting DVI-I to DVI-D + VGA for the Yuraku at WUXGA resolution (i.e. at the upper limit of a DVI single link's capacity). Being Dutch you're lucky to get it without prohibitive fees for postage&packing: (cf. ) ...and I hope you can share the benefit by helping readers in neighbouring countries to get their hands on these as well.
For the above reasons, even if you choose a purely digital connection (i.e. DVI-D), be sure to have short high-quality cables such as these: to avoid annoying artefacts (that might show up only intermittently, e.g. as blinking green lines, possibly depending on the contents of the frame shown, and not without a risk of driving users insane in the process of figuring out which cables actually fully meet the DVI specifications of transmitting 10 bits at 165 MHz).
