Re: Using a TV as a PC monitor

Mark - TV to PC
I am using an "ATI All in wonder pro" (£120) which is a combined
TV/Teletext
tuner and ATI rage style graphics card in one (only takes up one slot) it
has composite video input and output.
Paul - PC TO TV
The ATI card above gives millions of colours at 800x600 resolution when
outputting to TV. If you want the computer image distributed around the
house then I have seen a demo of some top notch modulators from
"Channel
Plus" (has anyone used these??). A modulator will allow you to take
the
composite video output from your TV/Graphics card and give it a unique
frequency so you can tune in any TV in the house to it just like you would
a
Video or Satellite decoder.

Guys,

I want to do the opposite to Paul Miller, and display TV/teletext onto
my PC.

Does anyone have any recommendations as to which of the boxes are best?
And where to buy them from?

I have a Dell Optiplex with an on-board AGP Graphics card (ATI Rage
something) and a Creative Labs Voodoo 2 that this will need to co-exist
with. I'm also running Windows 95, but will probably go to '98 before
too long. In an ideal world, the card would have a SCART input (or
something that I could wire up to a SCART output).
