PC To TV II
 

Hi,

Have the system setup but have hit a snag. It displays on the TV but because
the text is so poor I can't see to return the display to the PC. Any
suggestions?

That is the nature of TV - the resolution is not as good as a PC.
May sure you are using SVideo connection to get the slightly better
bandwidth, and make sure you are using quality cables and that the
cable impedance is 75 ohms.

A large TV might help. At worse you might have to start your PC in safe
mode to sort out your video settings again. With a good video card, clone
mode displays to both the monitor and TV. Making sure that the monitor is
the primary display and not the TV.

Actually I have trialled it and have now purchased it. You can right click a
file and send it to TV. When finished CTRL + F2 returns control to your
monitor. I don't know whether it was coincidental but the picture improved
greatly on default settings.

Great news but it only works on Nvidia cards..

Plus has a range of screen res modes..

Don't take any notice of "E. Scrooge" he is a troller and in most kill
filters here..
