[mythtv-users] VGA Adapter or new VGA Card with TV Out?

[Jeff Mottishaw]

Check the status of your TV's functionality out before you get a Vga -->
component adaptor.  My sony TV thinks its smart and tries to resize images
for me (its called enhanced 16:9 mode) and it looks horrible.  If your TV is
not supported correctly consider buying one of the transcoders that also
converts the signal (don't know much about these)

I would have to say that it depends on what kind of TV you have.  If you
have an HDTV capable monitor, then you will get the great results going with
a VGA->component adapter. (Audio Authority and Key Digital each make one).
I've got a Shuttle XPC so my slots are at a premium.
