[mythtv-users] GeForce 4 MX 440 - tvout motion

[Josh Burks]

If your into spending money to fix the problem (I was), then why don't 
you try a VGA to Component video adapter. I was using a MX440 w/ svideo, 
and I wasn't happy with the results, either. I picked up an adapter and 
the picture looks just like I was watching it directly on a VGA monitor. 
The picture looked so much better, that I pulled the MX440 out of my 
box, an just used the onboard Intel graphics.

A few MythTV users are using the Audio Authority adapter, I'm using one 
a little cheaper, but it works great.

A cheaper version, the one I'm using. You can do Svideo out or component 
  out or composite out to the tv with this one (good if you don't have 
component video in on your tv):
