if you have a flat screen why do you have a vga to composite/svideo conveter when you could just use vga to vga on your flat screen or use an vga to hdmi conveter or a vga to component conveter
I do plug DVI to VGA into the TV but the TV doesn't have an output signal so I can't video capture it that way.
I experimented with DVI to Component for a higher-quality signal but it looks like the vast majority of converters output a digital signal instead of an analogue one that most splitters/amplifiers/capture hardware is trying to experiment with.
This solution just happened to be cheaper and immediately available to me for that computer.
@Gigafrosty well then ok on my setup i use the hd pvr thing (using component input) and i just use a vga to component conveter and get a component splitter and done everything can go to many monitor (even though i do not have one
Do you have the same HD PVR or perhaps a better one? Mine wasn't so happy about the digital component signal. The VGA to Component DAC I managed to find only handles 640x480 VGA and converts it to a simple 480p signal. (Bought it for another project.)
@Gigafrosty i actually have the same one but there is a better one i saw on amazon.com where they use a pci card but then again it has to go in to your computer (requiring opening it up) but anyways mine can handle up to 1080i and it can except it. i think it has to do with your computer (memory, HDD space, virus, etc.) check to see on how much ram your computer can handle and see if it will work i run on a Compaq Presario CQ62 running windows 7 i think your computer runs on xp but try upgrading

For now they do. I think pieces here and there could be better, but having it all working is the most important.

Now we just need a way to hook the DS up to a TV...
