hey everyone. i was planning on building a SFF using the AIW 9600xt. the main purpose is goin to be as an "entertainment" center type of thing, being able to play dvds, streamed movies, gaming, FM radio, and tv tuning. i was going to use it primarily on a tv. does anyone have any experience doing tv-only computing using the AIW9600xt? suggestions or comments are welcome. thanx all.
 
It's okay... TV resolution isn't all that high so you have to have it at a fairly low res 800x600 in most cases. I have a small monitor hooked up nearby because when you do a driver update on it, it always wants to default to the monitor and leave the TV display blank. But as far as using it as a TV that's what the main function it is for me. A TV tuner, DVR, and Movie playback machine.
 
I run a Sony 60" GWiii with a 9600pro. Don't bother using s-video, unless you running DVI or component out, your DVD player will have a superior picture.
