[QUOTE="kaliatech, post: 24134, member: 15173"] What native resolutions are you setting your desktop to? I'm guessing you should be trying to set it to 848x480 or 1024x576. If TVTool doesn't help, maybe try Powerstrip? I'm not really sure how 16:9 (anamorphic) mode is handled via S-Video output is handled on that particular card. I'm guessing that series does not let you set the S-Video anamorphic mode separately. Offhand, I think others with that series video card have had similar problems. e.g. nVidia TI4600...right? Related info, although not exact: [url]http://www.meedio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=23604[/url] [url]http://www.xpmce.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=85809&postdays=0&postorder=asc&topic_view=&start=10[/url] Just fwiw. But IMO, (assuming your TV is digital (720p) capable) you'd probably be better off buying a new video card for <$75USD that had DVI, HDMI, or component output (depending on what your TV supports). I'm guessing s-video, in even widescreen mode, on any newer digital TVs just doesn't do them justice. [/QUOTE]
