</style>Hi guys,<br>
<br>
My TV is a Toshiba HD CRT and the manual says : <br>
<br>
NEVER CONNECT THIS TV TO A PERSONAL<br>
COMPUTER (PC.) This TV is not intended for<br>
use with a PC.<br>
<br>
<br>
I've been connecting it to my laptop through SVIDEO for a year now and
the quality was excellent. <br>
<br>
Why do you think they would say that ? could it damage the TV ?<br>
<br>
Do you think it's better to connect it through DVI or SVIDEO since it's
a CRT ?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>

Chandi, <br>

I had a Toshiba HD CRT as well (a 26HF84) and I used it for 2 years
via DVI-HDMI adapter (you'll get way better picture than using s-video)<br>
At first I had to find the right modeline, but now the nVidia drivers
are mature enough to auto-detect it. I used mine with a 720p ATSC
modeline I found on nvnews forums<br>
<br>
I think they put that in so that they don't have to field the tech
support calls when it doesn't work, that tv is quite picky about the
frequencies it gets. <br>
<br>
I'll be happy to help with xorg.conf if you need it, I still have ssh
access to the myth box attached to it. <br>
