Different revision of the GF4 MX 440 use(d) different TV encoder chips for their TV-out. Depending on who you ask, some are great and some suck. My original LeadTek GF4 MX 420 used an NV17 encoder chip, which was probably about as good as I could have wanted without going to a PVR-350 or DVI/component. My new(er) on-board (Chaintech 7NIF2) GF4 MX 440 uses an NV18 encoder, which IMHO really sucks. Just my $.02. -JAC _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
