Post subject: | S-video out not working well |
Everything looks fine on my pc monitor but when I connect my pc to my tv with the s-video out I get a black and white, scrolling picture. My video card is an old nvidia card and my tv is a new sony. Im not sure if adding: Option "TVOutFormat" "SVIDEO" is necessary in:/etc/X11/XF86Config-4.nvidia-tvout.sample /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 because it sort of works right now. If I added the line where does it go in the long list of things? It could be a frequency setting wrong? Also is there a way to switch from s-video to pc monitor and back again? Thanks, Mike ________ FORD LTD CROWN VICTORIA PICTURE |

Can you provide the model of the graphics card? |

Yeah, seriously, when you're asking hardware related issues, PLEASE! Tell us what the hardware is. Otherwise we're playing "Doctor it hurts." |

TV out: The first video card is a Micro-star MS-8835 NvideoGeforce 2 GTS Pro 64Meg. This card displays garbage immediately on startup and continue to all the time. I have an old Voodo 3 3000 32Meg card. This works fine on bootup until the graphical menu appears. Then it displays garbage. When I blindly init a shutdown it works fine in text mode until it turns off. Both cards work fine connected to my monitor. Any ideas? Mike ________ MARIJUANA PICTURES |

have you looked at the tvout page on the wiki? sounds like you haven't set your vertical refresh properly. for starters. |
