TV Out

[muc0n]

I just got a new video card with an S-Video connection for tv out. My problem is that my tv only has a coaxial connection on the back. I have looked for some type of adapter and someone told me that s-video cannot be "downgraded" to a coaxial connection because the color quality is too low or something like that. Has anyone overcome this problem and gotten a good picture on their tv.

You can buy an adapter at many places, they usually cost around $8.

What's the frequency, Kenneth?

Where might these places be and are you sure it is s-video to coaxial? I have checked best buy, radio shack, and circuit city and was told there was not an adapter but i could try a modulator but it might not work or the picture may be really bad. And a modulator or whatever they are called are like 50 dollars and it is not worth that much money.

www.partsexpress has them, but they are very hard to find on that site!
Someone else recommended a cheaper place last time I mentioned it.

What's the frequency, Kenneth?

Do they have a speific name or brand? I checked that sight and even did a search on google and came up with nothing that would do what i needed. If i cant get this to work i'm going to send the card back but i only have 30 days. Thanks for all the help.
