I'm interested in get my VGA or SuperVGA video output to normal TV or
a VCR. Is there anybody who could suggest which hardware and software I
could use?

Preferably I want the output both on the monitor and the VCR/TV. I normally
use windows at 1024x768 resolution which I would like to continue to do
while using this extra hardware.

Any suggestions /

Dalco Computer Accessories 1-800-445-5342 has a PC to TV Super VGA Card.

"...This card is a 16-bit VGA graphics adapter with a built-in video encoder
to convert your VGA graphics signal a NTSC composite video signal for
standard color TV use...displays graphics composed in 1024x768 in 16 colors
and at lower resolutions with a maximum of 256 colors...RCA,S-VHS and RGB
Output Connectors; supports MS Windows 3.0; NTSC Recordable Resolutions up
to 640x480 in 256 Colors; Simultaneous Non-interlaced VGA and Interlaced
NTSC Outputs.   #80910...$395.00"

I have no personal experience with this card, but it sounds good.

Hi,
when you want 1024x768 you need a scanconverter ! Very expensive. I'm
just developing one, that does also 1280x1024 at 60 Hz to PAL 50 Hz
Interlace.

If you can live with 800x600, there is now a cheap 200 US$ version
from a german based electronics company. In this momnet it does only
PAL, but it is going to get also NTSC support. It already supports
the Genoa 7900 true color board at 640x480 in 24 bits. So this is the
only PC2TV converter in this price range, which can already display
24 bits on video (interlaced 50 hz)

Email me, if you wanna know more.

Best regards Stefan Hartmann.
