Brain Picking: XBMC and NTSC
Brain Picking: XBMC and NTSC
#1
I'm currently towards the "fiddly bits" of trying to get an XMBCuntu 11 install to talk to my television. The video card - the ONLY one I can use on the box - is VGA/HDMI/DVI (PNY GeForce 210 DDR2 512M PCie 2.0). My television is a 10-year-old Panasonic, Composite/Component/Svideo inputs. I'm trying to use an older Apple DVI-Composite/Svideo adapter. I can see video, of sorts... all sorts of "bad sync and resolution" oddness.
Does anyone have any recommendation for a resolution/refresh setting that will work with this combination? It's fairly obvious to me that it's really just a "correct settings" issue.
And for the record, replacing the television with a flat panel isn't an option, both budget wise, and that I have a large number of old-school light-gun video games that I like to bust out. Plus, I'm only really doing this so I can watch YouTube video on the television, without relying on the Xbox's broken YouTube app, because otherwise I watch so little television at home it isn't even funny. And I just happened to have the parts handy to try to build a media center PC.
