Re: [mythtv-users] YPrPb component out for MythTV

[Richard Bronosky]

Thanks for the link to a SQUATTER SITE!  But the first statement in the beginning of this thread was begging people DO NOT SUGGEST ALTERNATIVES!  I don't want an additional piece of hardware (that requires it's own transformer) hanging off the back of a SFF HTPC! todd bailey wrote: allow me to add my 2 cents. all of the svga cards out today produce rgb + hv, ie red green blue and hor and vert sync. there are companies that have hardware that will take this format and convert it to component video. www.videoone.com for example has this hardware. find a video card chip set that is well supported and buy one of these converters and you'll be golden.... ---------------------------------------------------- This mailbox protected from junk email by MailFrontier Desktop from MailFrontier, Inc. http://info.mailfrontier.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "James Oltman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Bruno Bronosky" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "Discussion about mythtv" <mythtv-users@mythtv.org> Sent: Friday, July 29, 2005 2:07 PM Subject: Re: [mythtv-users] YPrPb component out for MythTV It should. The colors on the back of a TV or even on the back of the DVD player are Red, Green and blue. All should be well.

I visited the MSI page about the card, and it doesn't mention anything about the output format. THIS DRIVES ME CRAZY!!! All manufacturers do this. http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=NX6200AX-TD128&class=vga James Oltman wrote: On 7/29/05, Richard Bronosky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Please no responses about transcoders or alternatives. I went through 39 pages of emails on http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/ last night trying to find a solution, but in every thread someone changes the subject. I'm looking for a video card or mother board with on-board video supported by MythTV that has simple YPrPb component output. I've seen a few cards from ATI, but I fear Linux support for those. I've also heard of a VIA or EPIA mother board that some guy was selling (several of), but I thought it was weird that the only outlet for the unit was an individual's blog. There has been lots of interest in component out over the past 2 years. Let's get a definitive answer into the threads, and put this one to rest. NVidia makes several cards that have component output on them. I do most of my shopping through www.newegg.com and they refer to it as HDTV out. I just posted a question yesterday regarding this card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16814127174 It has the component outs on it. I figure I will probably have to run Powerstrip in Windows to get a good ModeLine for this card and my analog Sony Wega with component inputs. This card is capable of outputting 480i (Analog), 480p(DVD HighDef), 720p(HD), 1080i(HD). I plan on just using the 480i for now, but if I get an HD TV, there ya go!
