Nah, I didn't miss that one. It's just as has been said before, the G400 series has such a flawless NTSC (and PAL?) output... sucks to have to give it up. But for $40... well, that's nothing at all. Just wonder what to do with the leftover G400 (and the passive heatsink conversion I did to it). I'll look up the GF 7xxx though. If it has good video output, I probably should step up. I'm always a stubborn mule about upgrading, that's all. :P James ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Freevo-devel mailing list Freevo-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freevo-devel
