[huskerlug] Re: TV-out

The picture is very poor especially on text.  

Whether you use RCA or S-Vid doesn't matter.   The card converts to NTSC
which is about 300-350 horizontal lines of resolution.   Which is half
quality of 800x600.  

There are some exceptions.   If you have component in direct to the tv
you will receive a little better quality resolution.   But anytime you
downgrade to ntsc, you take a huge resolution hit. 

The only way to achieve a decent picture on your computer is have a
multimedia monitor/tv with VGA inputs.   They are becoming more populous
in the new tv's.   

I suggest building the piece of crap pc for mp3's and getting a $50 dvd
player.  After all, you're going to pay almost that for a tv-out card.
