hi.

Well I've just spent two days trying to get Powerstrip to output a
signal that my TV would use correctly. I'm about to give up and move on
to something else but I thought I would try here first for a possible
solution.

The situation is that I'm trying to output video to my Panasonic HDTV
using a VGA to 3 component video adapter at greater than 640x480. My
specs are as follows,I have both an nvidia and ATI video cards and I
don't care which one I use to make this work


Panasonic HDTV PT-47WX52CF
NVIDIA GeForce MX440 64MB from MSI or ATI Radeon 9200 SE 128MB from
Saphire
Key Digital Systems ClearColor3 VGA to 3 Component video adapter
ABIT KV7 Motherboard
512 MB
AMD Athlon 2600+

If anyone has suggestions for Modelines that should make this work I'd
appreciate hearing from you. Please note which video card they are for.

On the other hand should I send the KDS adapter back and try the Audio
Authority(or other, suggestions please?). Or should I chuck it all and
try the X-Box front-end? Besides the extra time, the X-Box is actually
cheaper than the KDS and comparable to the Audio Authority.(I do know
that the X-box currently only does 480p for HDTV but the potential is
there.)

All suggestions are welcome at this point. I don't really want to go
back to S-Video.

Thanks kindly.
