Using VGA-to-SVideo converter, dual monitor situation?
Hi again all.
I'm doing a PC build and it's secondary purpose will be as an HTPC in a room that has an old analog tube style TV (a 1998-vintage Sony Trinitron). Replacing that TV is not an option at the moment.
I want to use something like this to get the signal on to the TV. The video card (already purchased) is this one.
As you can see on the card details, it's dual head (what video cards aren't these days? :) ) so will this allow a sort of "dual monitor" setup in Win7, where monitor #2 is in fact the TV? If that is the case, can I have the monitor at a nice high resolution and the TV at it's nominal low resolution simultaneously? Or will I have to use the converter's passthrough feature and connect it all through a single head?
Thanks in advance all.
