[QUOTE="Cetacea, post: 37839, member: 13348"] Ok, I have my HTPC pretty much built. I am connected to my TV (JVC HDTV "ready" with HDMI connector) using S-Video from my XFX G-Force FX6800. I must say the video quality is pretty crappy. What is the best way to connect to this tv? I thought about a DVI to HDMI converter cable but read that this may damage my TV. The TV manual says the HDMI is NOT compatible with a PC. I bought a VGA to Component cable, but this does not work at all as I get no video. I saw "transcoders" available for around $150. Do I need one of these to get a good picture? Or am I pretty much stuck using the crappy S-Video? Thanks for any inputs. Glenn [/QUOTE]
