HTPC s-video or hdmi. Hey Guys, I put together an HTPC with some old components for my wife and I to go old school and play some good old 8-bit nintendo games. The Video card is an old agp geforce mx4000 128mb 64-bit with vga and s-video output. My...

DVI, Svideo, and HDMI oh my. Hi, I have a problem I am building a hometheatre pc. I am trying to figure out what out put to use and what TV to use. I have not bought my TV yet but I do have the computer set up. it has a 9600xt with svideo and dvi output....

No sound on S-Video only. I was watching a DVD movie from my Samsung BD-P2500 on my Samsung LCD LN46A6501F TV. I turned off the DVD player and switch the TV source from HDMI to S-Video. I notice the S-Video was missing Audio even though the S-Video source works....

is like that too. I'm guessing there's some advantage to an HDMI output over an S-Video? HDMI is capable of higher resolutions than S-Video. Putting S-video on seems like a waste, but I guess they thought there was enough reason to put one on....

is, whats the best way to hook up my HDTV to my computer? On my old one I have a DVI to HDMI cable, but I think the reception is pretty poor. What will give me the best connection possible? Is it a DVI to HDMI cable? I heard that they have a s-video>HDMI...

through HDMI/Svideo that does duefully mean that it is classically not a computer monitor... -_- I'm assuming you are hooking the "Monitor" up to your pc through an HDMI->DVI adapter as i've never heard of an 8800 GT with an onboard HDMI connector; this...

the MB. I got a new 50" plasma. The onboard supports HDMI as well as S-video. However, when I try to use both the S-video and HDMI 1) It seems a little shaky in terms of the signal, sometimes cutting in and out (maybe a power issue?) 2) The HDMI signal...
