Hi, quick question -
Is a TV-out display on a normal telly generally lousy?
I've an S-vid connection coming out of a Geforce 4 MX to my TV and the image is almost devoid of colour and quite shaky. Now I'm aware that TVs can't handle anything near PC resolution or refresh rates but I'm running it as low as possible (800x600 and 60Hz respectively) and it's still pretty crappy.
It's not THAT important as this PC is mainly functioning as an MP3 server so as long as I can see Winamp playlists I'm pretty much Ok, but obviously it'd be nice to be able to use it to play games and use the internet on as well.
Any ideas/advice?
