    Beyond TV & ATI TV-W USB2

    Thanks, I'll look into that. Which is better, dscaler or the nvidia one offered with the pvr150 at pcalchemy? Why spend the extra $10 if I don't have to, right? Short answer? This is all a part of my attempt to figure out if some of the problems I've experienced are hardware or...

    Beyond TV & ATI TV-W USB2

    Sure is a lot to take in

    Thanks a lot for the replies, even if you thought it o/t. All of it was very insightful. I actually retried the Ti4800SE again tonight with some better success, mostly in part because of what I learned just visiting this forum. Right now, the quality of video only seems limited by my PVR...

    Sure is a lot to take in

    I know there's a ton of information already here on this forum, and I've already gone through a bit of the stickies. But I'm hoping that some of you might help answering a couple quick questions to help me understand what's best. First, I don't have a HDTV. Just a simple Sony 27" TV that's...
