In Reply to: Video card advice - Mame to TV? posted by Haggis on 6, 2001 at 11:55 AM:
: I want a relatively cheap video card that will give me an S-video out to a 25" TV, which some day I plan to mount in a cabinet. I've heard bad things about the 3dfx Voodoo3 TV out, and heard good things about the ATI series (though I can't figure out which ATI cards have the video built in -- their website doesn't match most vendor's descriptions...).
: This'll pretty much exclusively run Mame32, unless there's a good reason not to.
I am using a Rage fury pro 32mb card, and it works sweet in windows. I am using the arcade at home front end, with the dos version of mame, and it looks SWEET with my 27" RCA t.v., with the S-Video input. Anyhow, on a sidenote, if anyone has had any luck with MV and advance mame with this setup, please let me know. The best I can get is some modes that dont display correctly, I am wondering if the ATI emulates something other than the "TV" standards in DOS mode, I.E. when I go to grab a text mode for MV(the defaults dont work), it is showing the VSYNC at like 30, and I believe it is supposed to be 15.73...Anyhow, Any Ideas would be great! Cheers to All...
