[mythtv-users] 1000th picture quality question

[Scott Harris]

I don't know that a 350 would help him.  I have one, but I made the mistake of having a switch box on top of the TV for the PS2/PS etc.  As a last ditch problem solver the wife can always switch back directly to the directv output if the myth system gets fried when I'm not at home for some reason.  The problem is, one day she was switching back and forth and said "why isn't the picture as clear from the home made system as direct?"  Smart little cookie.

Is getting a 350 or using a vga-tv converter out of the question?
Seems like you gave the simplest answer to your question already.  On
the downside it costs more money, but you didnt say you were adverse
to that idea.
