5200 TV out Question (old TV)
Hi all. I've got an old TV that I want to use an NTSC test screen for my
work. This thing is REALLY old and only has a co-axial cable input. I've noticed that on the back of the vid card there is both an RCA video out and an Svideo out. Can I use the RCA out to go to my VCR's video in and then connect the regular co-ax cable from my VCR to my TV? If the RCA out on the vid card won't do it can I go svideo out from the card, into an svideo/rca adapter, into my VRC, and then to the TV? Thanks! Buddee. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Is there any way to correct that? Buddee. |

Make sure you have the tv-out screen resolution set to 800x600 or 640x480.
Regular tvs are not capable of higher than 800x600 resolution. Also, your app/game etc. needs to be set for 800x600 or 640x480 as well if it uses its own resolution. "Buddee" wrote in message ...
