Well, I was following the article and everything is working just perfectly.

The only thing is that the TV doesn't display any kind of movie (neither DVD or DivX). Everything else works though (games, applications, etc.).

Do you have any idea what should I do to view my movies on the TV?

What videocard are you using?

Probably ATI...

You have to go to your settings and make your TV the PRIMAIRY screen. See attachment:

They Say that S-video has much beter TV-Quality then the Scart connector? is that true?

DUR0N 6th December 2003 12:15

well, scart is a bunch of standards together. If you got a scart cable (shielded properly) i think that wil give the best quality.
But all is subjective, you will never see the diference. So what's the point then in buying such a expensive scart cable?
Imo scart is only usefull when you got a phat dvdplayer with RGB out, which gives a real visual improvement.

Hi guys, here's another question for you.
I've got a PCI GeForce2 MX400, with a tv-out (s-video)
Connected this one to my TV using such a scart block, wherein i plugged a s-video cable, and the white and red audio connectors.
i put a channel on AV on the TV.
Switched my puter on, used TV-tool, and set it on NTSC (thats the only way i get a coloured image) and pressed the big green shiny button :D

Now what i get to see on the TV is the channel on the background (snow, cuz it's an empty channel), and in the foreground the PC screen, 50% visible if u know what i mean, so they're a little mixed up.

anyone know how i can fix this problem?

Thanks in advance,
Bored

if you live in the US or china-> NTSC
else PAL :)
try to change the AV channel, some TV's have several AV channels.
snow means interference so i suggest you check the cables, there might be a bad one. And are you using the block as an input or an output (different pins for that, some blocks have a switch to change between them, some of them don't)
is the sound ok?
does the VCR work properly on the AV channel?

if you put both your TV and your computer screen on that "round thingy" DivX works just fine
your screen will be adapted to your TV (same frequency)

what do you mean? grayscale means you can see the image on your TV, but it\'s only in black\'nwhite
