Don't forget, TV has terrible resolution (worse than 640x480), so
when scaled up to 1280x1024 (or thereabouts...) it'll look pretty
terrible. And as a bonus, you'll get to see all of the artifacts
that make analog transmission lose, not to mention any ghosting
caused by impedence mismatching in the cable path.
I run my tv card at native tv resolution, and zoom X down to 640x480
and live with the black border around the picture. It doesn't look
too bad that way. The hard line is, if you want a tv picture to
look really good, you're better off watching it on a TV. :^(
