[mythtv-users] Converting VGA (1024x768@60Hz) to component

[MythTV]

Does anyone have experience with any of the nVidia component-out cards they
can share?  If they work, nVidia component-out cards are cheaper than the
VGA to component converters.

Thanks,
Todd

I just bought a 'VGA LEADTEK GF PX6200 TC-64-H RT - Retail
<http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16814122226>' card from
Newegg that has component video out (via a 'pigtail' adapapter). It also has
vga and dvi out...  I haven't tried it yet...  but my plans are to run it
through my Yamaha receiver that 'switches' component 3 video inputs to
component out, and upconverts the rest to component....
