Suggestions for output to TV (1 Viewer)

Hello,

I've done some searching around but I didn't see any topics similar to this... I apologize if I missed something.

Does anyone have suggestions for the best way to get my PC's signal displayed on a TV? Right now I am using S-Video and I feel like the picture could be a little better. I am currently using a WinTV-Go+, but a WinTV-PVR500 will be in my mailbox tomorrow. Will the better capture card yield better TV quality on screen?

Thanks for the advice

Dan

yes there are other posts on this, very roughly from worst to best (I think this is right):
RCA - S-video - VGA - HDMI. I use VGA because my SAMSUNG TV has a DVI port that is not compatible with PCs (no idea why samsung does this). When i tried RCA I were very surprised how bad it really was, and S-video was no better. so yes, a different connection could make a major difference.

Thanks, I'll do some experimenting.
