Hi Folks,<br><br>I've got an MSI nvidia 7300LE card with a TV out. It's like a svideo socket<br>but has more pins - I'm guessing that a normal svideo lead should work (as<br>the svideo pins do line up nicely). There was zero useful documentation with
<br>the card.<br><br>Does anyone have any clues as how to set up TV out from an nvidia card as the<br>only output? Can you post your xorg.conf? The howto's I've seen so far all<br>seem to want to set the TV up as a second monitor.
<br></blockquote><div><br>It should be a rock-standard S-Video connection, according to the information on MSI's site. Anyway, it's not that difficult to set up for TV-only output. You use option lines like these in the "Device" section:
<br><br> Option "TVOutFormat" "SVIDEO"<br> Option "UseDisplayDevice" "TV"<br> Option "TVStandard" "PAL-I"<br><br>You might want to read the "Configuring TV Output" chapter of the NVidia driver documentation. It's actually pretty good.
