Hi everyone,
Just a quick question. Can anyone give me an
idea
of the picture quality of a tivo vs a good showshifter setup.
I've been using showshifter since the first
release, and it's got much much better, but I still have some issues that
are
not software related.
I find the tv in/out combination of most
graphics
cards leads to a duller tv picture if watched on tv, compared to the direct
tv
feed.
I have tried a g400 DH with a hand made RGB
scart
output, with a WINTV for input. I adjusted the display to nearly full
screen PAL, good enough for me anyway..
The general 'windows' display is
good,
but running SS the tv display looks washed out. Tweaking the settings
improves
things a little, but I think its the limit of the WINTV card. This is from
a
svideo feed from a jvc svhs from an ntl digital RGB scart.
Does anyone here use any ATI cards at
all?
Do they produce full screen PAL tv signals? (I
think from memory they do)
Does fullscreen SS display, when viewed on a
TV
look as good as normal tv?
Can you flick from a direct source and the PC
on
the TV and not really tell the difference?
Now, the Tivo I saw in dixons yesterday and
the
picture quality looked great (as it should) but I didn't get the chance to
test
it.
Sorry to ask so many questions, but I've been
burned to many times with buying hardware which underperforms.
