It is not bad, but DVI is better and a nice PCIe fanless card won't hurt.

Hi,
From what I can find on the internet your TV is expecting -
480i (720x480 interlaced)
480p (720x480 progressive)
1080i (1920x1080 interlaced)
This is what you should be sending to it. But you probably can't do that due to NVidia not producing a new Forceware driver for the FX5200.
You could try this one...

Hi jbell,
Could you tell us if your system is working now?
Witch screen are you using, how are you doing for the sound?
Does this system has fan? Noisy?

Thanks!

an IR blaster is just an IR transmitter that can change your set top boxes channel for you.
I would suggest that you try to set up media portal, it might be easier than you think.

On the bedroom PC, right click on the folder you want to share, choose Sharing and Security... Share This Folder... That should make the folder visible in the My Network Places... folder on the living room PC. This assumes that you have run the Network Setup Wizard on both PCs. Networking on XP is a pain. :wtf:

Well daniel i really dont want to get repetative but as i said in my last post my tv does support that resolution and im sure nearly all other lcds will as well
The fact that the quality on the windows desktop is not as good as 1360 makes little difference as its the same in media portal which is what we are here about
Also im sure...

Ok, the "digital" channels, if part of any package beyond basic, may not tune in on any available tuner. most do the standard 125 cable chans or so for US market.
The OTA HD chans should record natively with a decent HD tuner just fine, some QAM chans work fine with a few tuners over cable as well, but, dont count on the stability of...

You should be concerned 2ndly about your network? are these machines gonna be 10/100? I had a nightmare with wireless trying to serve media fast enough. I hardwired and have 5 machines all running the same movie from the server with no problem. With Wireless, "G" and "Super G" it couldn't handle more than 1.

I used FloppyDTV-S with Conax CAM for Canal Digital. It was a new card, and was paired. However, it did still work with the FloppyDTV-S.
Channel changing for encrypted channels was terribly slow though. I was able to do some testing with my paired card, and my friend's unpaired card. With the unpaired card I had a Zap...

Deffenately the 6200, or even better ... the 6600. It costs just a little more. The 6200 will do for all non HD video.

Many thanks Druid9,
I think this product is wonderful when you just need one Media Center.
It is a little bit expensive to be a client, when there is no need for TV and a so big HD!
I hope that soon we will see a PC built into a flat screen!
Thanks for your help!

Does the Hauppauge WinTV HVR-4000 card work in MediaPortal?
I believe looking at other posts there are problems with the HVR-3000 (which is similar to the HVR-4000, except no DVB-S2) getting the analog tuner to work as it uses software encoding.
