Silver Member Username: YakovakiPost Number: 201 Registered: Sep-07 | hmmm yes rtap he needs something at least with component (red blue green connections) i have a sharp aquos 1080p hdtv 42inch when i try the nFusion on it it looks quite nice but obviously sd channels dont look nearly as good on it as hd channels if you want a better box i can tell u off hand that: nFusion Viewsat Ultra CaptiveWorks 600SP Pansat 3500SD Sonicview 4000 all have good quality on lcd's (fairly good in sd)using component connections and: Viewsat 9000HD Sonicview 8000HD both have great hd quality on the lcd's and i can only tell you these models because i have tested them on it connections for these two were using hdmi (great quality video and audio in one cable) so in conclusion: if you are looking for an sd box pick something from the list above or maybe do some research in to other boxes something cheap and good would be captive works (under 100$ with great pic quality and good support) something more stable would be nFusion (costs double the price) something expensive but in my opinion worth it on a good tv!!! is HD boxes like viewsat or sonicview (must buy component for dish hd and total costs is $575 - $630 or bv hd is just the box so 400-450) **all figures are fairly recent and in canadian dollars** good luck |

Gold Member Username: Pulp_fictionPost Number: 1090 Registered: Nov-07 | http://www.genpix-electronics.com/index.php?act=viewDoc&docId=7 What is 8PSK-to-USB2? My original design is a USB 2.0 adapter for 8PSK module (the module, which dishnetwork uses in their 6000 HDTV receivers). "Why does anyone want to have this thing" you may ask. Well, as name of the module implies, it could tune and decode various formats of Satellite signal modulations. Including QPSK (any DVB-s card in the world could do the same), Digicipher II, DSS and 8PSK. Supported modulations: DVB-S (QPSK) Turbo-coded QPSK Turbo-coded 8PSK Turbo-coded 16QAM Digicipher II Combo Digicipher II Split (I/Q) Digicipher II Offset QPSK DSS (QPSK) DVB-S2 standard is not supported (incompatible FEC)  If you want to read more about DVB modulation/transmission go read official DVB documents (just google them). If you want to start from something easier to underspend try to find "reviews for dummies". If you already know basic stuff (or think that you know) try to read very good reviews at COOL.STF Back to business! How does this interface work? And why use interface to the module, but not a single board card? First of all, DN 8PSK module has very good tuner on board (about 2dB higher sensitivity then average PCI DVB-s card). Why not use it? Second, if you have DN 8PSK module collecting dust in your garage you can find a better use for it. Since you already have the tuner, you can save some $$ by buying adapter only (single board all-in-one solution is more expensive). Attach 8PSK module from one side, USB cable and power from other side, and here we go: |

Silver Member Username: DimwittPost Number: 382 Registered: Aug-06 | bruce, you get no sound with the red/green/ blue because they are meant for video only you have to add red and white audio cables to get sound |

Gold Member Username: Pulp_fictionPost Number: 1097 Registered: Nov-07 | Red blue green is componet video cable Red yellow white is composite video with r/l audio cw600 has svideo out which in most cases u can go directly to to the tv seeing it's a standard connector or u can get a svideo to component cable if the tv doesn't have a svideo connector but there isn't any advantage to converting S-Video to Component. seeing the advantage of component low color noise will be limited by the svideo source. |

So this is a guess based on linux images.. Go into setup and look for A/V control there should be a user control area where u can select video output usally in the same control panel where you can switch between 4:3 or 16:9 and ntsc or pal give that a try |

Gold Member Username: RtapFL Post Number: 1749 Registered: Jan-07 | here you go king. The "i" and "p" refer to interlaced or progressive scanned images as described above. 480i is considered "standard" definition television and is the image we have all enjoyed for well over half a century. With new digital technology this 480i image can result in a very respectable picture quality for the viewer. Take a 480i image and show both fields simultaneously and you have 480p, or progressive. This is the native format encoded onto a DVD (Digital Versatile Disc). Both 480i and 480p are based upon the standard 525 line NTSC broadcast system. 720p is a progressive scan high-definition system supported by digital broadcast. A 720p system uses 720 horizontal scanning lines displayed in a progressive manner every 1/30 second. 1080i is a high-definition system supported by digital broadcast. A 1080i system uses 540 horizontal scanning lines displayed in two interlaced fields, each field displayed every 1/60-second. 1080p is a progressive scan high-definition system not currently available to consumers, although some interpolation devices can display 1080i and 720p source material in the 1080p format. 1080p shows 1080 horizontal scanning lines painted every 1/30-second. |
