how does one go about hooking up a game console to a video card equipped with vivo to play on an lcd monitor? is there any software needed? since i'm a poor college student, everything is originally hooked up to an old tv using a/v inputs.
 
You'll need a program called Dscaler, which is free, but i wouldn't bother, it'll look much better on your TV

Math challenges for families? Not sure how that helps :p


But yeah, what graphics card do you have? With ati you can get all the software you need off their site. Multimedia centre or something is what you're after. I don't know about nvidia cards and vivo, but my ati x800xl is pretty crap for vivo quality, but still ok. Though it's easily worse than my ancient and dying Winfast TV2000XP.

I'm not sure what in the world happened to that link, but this is what I meant--->

Dscaler is awesome for this because of the array of filters available for it. Playing my consoles on my LCD actually looks quite nice when using Dscaler.
 
what about connection wise? are there any special cables needed or do i just use my regular av cable?
