My favorite cable (the simplest circuit I know from) is described in my README. I don't know why most VGA2SCART cables are composed of so many parts. > Not that that's particularly difficult but do you gain any advantage using > the higher resolution on the Intel cards vs standard 576i with ATI.

ATI cards do have a major drawback compared to Intel cards: They can't scale vertically in interlaced mode because they can't scale both fields independently. So your TV must handle format adaptions. - Thomas _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
