I have Knoppmyth running fine on an old PC with a PVR-250 and an N-Vidia 5200 graphics card. I want to output this to my HDTV via S-Video. The card has DVI and S-Video outputs. However, I'm not trying to do anything hi-def. I'm worried about setting up Myth correctly so I don't hurt the TV. I figure S-Video is probably the lesser hassle, so I'd probably choose that output. QUESTION: Is there a truly easy step-by-step walkthrough regarding how to setup TV output? For example, I have no idea how to do any XF86Config modification, nor do I know what exactly to change. Many thanks in advance. Sorry for the noob question. |

http://www.knoppmythwiki.org/index.php? ... Transition that is pretty in depth. proabably with a fx 5200 and svid as long as you are in ntsc land you could most likely get away with just copying over the tvout sample config file. |

Xsecrets, Thanks. You beat me to it. I was about to post the link myself. However, I'm still nervous about the command-line stuff. The "monitor to tv transition" explains many steps. However, a noob like myself does not even know how to open a text window to start the process. Same goes for how to save a file, once I've modified it. Is there something out there for the truely linux-challenged? Thank you for everything. Knoppmyth amazes me each time I use it. |

spalVl, Great, now I'm set. Sorry I didn't find that on my own. Cheers! |
