Component output from HTPC?!?

[dan_aka_jack]

Hi there,

So, I've just picked up a rather nice Panasonic CRT TV from eBay. The TV is capable of showing progressive scan if fed via its component inputs.

But, I'm trying my hardest to have only one box under our TV: my HTPC. So, my question is: are there any PCIe graphics cards which deliver decent 25p RGB component outputs?

Many thanks,
Jack

You can with the ATI all in wonder cards + break out box. I'm sure there are others.

You can pick them up cheaply on auction sites.

Thanks loads for your reply.

You mentioning ATI reminded me of something: I bought a break-out cable for my HTPC's ATI on-board graphics from an auction site a few months ago. I checked it this morning and it does indeed have component outputs! So, perhaps I have everything I need... I'll try hooking it up later today if I get a chance.

Thanks,
Jack
