Ideally it would be at the native resolution (my TV has HDMI in so a 720p or 1080i resolution would be preferable, although 720p would be upconverted on the TV), but I haven't had any luck with 1080i modelines with the nvidia drivers. > I use a 1080i modeline and I could not use an Athlon XP 2800 and get > satisfactory output.

I can't ever see myself getting dual HDTV cards though, I barely use the dual tuners I have now simultaneously. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
