...I borrow to connect to computer...don't have a TV...

This is a bit off subject of the blurriness, but on my setup I have my ATI All-in-Wonder hooked up to a video-out on my VCR so whatever the VCR is displaying I can record to my computer be it a video tape, signal from the satellite, or we also plug our Playstation and Game Cube into the video input on the front of the VCR. I don't think the VCR would help clarify your signal but it does make it easier to switch between devices, plus my son can record his own game demos on either the pc or VCR.

HDTV's are esintally monitors so your point is moot.


plus u can buy compenent wires for your systems which is progressive scan just barely below vga.

but i can't think of any video cards that have component video input?

and speedy_b... on my last post, i was suggesting to krux he should invest in an s-video cable cuz he said he was using the standard composite connection.

and what's this about lcd's and refresh rates? their refresh rate is the least of your worries... the limiting factor is response time. the lower, the less blurring you get. if you want refresh rates to go above 60hz (and make a difference), you'll have to get an lcd with less than 14ms response time. and that's pretty rare. for a true 100hz, you'd need a response time of 10ms. i don't know of any that go near this low.

I know, just thought i'd mention we were using an s-vid lead, and it doesn't improve the quality.
TV cards/PC's just aren't designed for gamecubes

That's the circuitry's refresh rate, but is that also the visual refresh rate as well?

 

[Zedric]

Well, yes I suppose. Why shouldn't it be? It refreshes with 75 Hz but I guess there could be some "lag" before the pixels change if it's a slow screen.
