Well, lets see. I'm building a micro atx to put next to my dvd player and I'm wirelessly networking it to my network, too much wiring through the house otherwise and the lady of the house hates that. Well, I am going to tos in a PVR500 runnning xp pro so I can record a show while watching another one. Well, that said, the pvr uses ethernet and I don't want that, is there a USB option or should I just install a video card with video out, I will be wanting to use my TV occasionally for setup reasons as a monitor, but most of the time I will use it for PVR only so I'm not quite sure what to do, my GBPVR looks good, but with the resolution on my computer, it looks pretty bad, but TV resoluton is no where near so it will look better on there I know,
but I need something I can use for video out that will support at least 600x800 if not 1024x768 resonably enough to edit scripts. but still go down to a resonable resolution to make GBPVR look good on the TV screen. Well, if you need to know the hardware involved, chipsetnot sure yet, but AMD athlon 64, 1-2GB ram depending on sales, 400Gb HD, Haup PVR500, win XP pro, ned to know if I should get a good PCIE video card with video out or if there is a USB option like MVP. Ok, I'm tired so excuse my repetition and atrocious spelling.
Edited 4-23-06: So I have not recieved a single reply, is this because it is a stupid question or no one knows the answer? I just want to know if there is anything that I can use for tv out that will give good resolution when I want, but go down in res to make GB look good that is either a decent PCI-E card or USB and not ethernet, because that means a lot of work to use it.
