In search of videocard with variable screen resolution to 480i TV Output

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hi,

A friend (Its never the person writing the email right ;) ) is looking for a videocard that will display at variable screen resolutions ( 640x480, 800x600, 1040x780 etc) to regular NTSC TV Out (480i S-Video preferred interconnection) in such a way that would allow readable text on the TV. For instance, his ATI Radeon 9700 while displaying to TV output would not render readable text on his TV and it would not allow him to adjust the screen resolution. You can barely read it (Please correct this statement if he was using the card incorrectly..he was using the S-Video Output on it). You know that its there, you know where you're going so-to-speak but you can't see "squat". The reason for the text is to not have to have a monitor on top of the TV cluttering up the living room.

Any ideas as to what types of card(s) if any would solve this problem? (Links are welcome)

BTW, this card would be a solution to displaying Divx, Xvid type movies as played on a PC onto his TV as well as to eventually migrate the PC into a PVR system down the road ( eventually upgrading to HD ). Hopefully not too tall of an order...

Sincerely,
Tim Schoenfelder
