How do I output to my TV from my computer?

Check your driver if you can set up the TV as a secondary or primary monitor with the correct format.

simple question with very complicated answer.

ideally you want to output 15khz 240p using soft15khz or arcadeVGA . You then need an RGB capable monitor or RGB-YUV transcoder.

this is assuming your looking for best quality.

CRT_emudriver

Or use GroovyArcade Linux distro

This, and then this:

Or use the catalog to find the real crt thread and ask in there.

I'm using windows 7 if it makes any difference.

Please use the CRT thread.

The first response was the answer you were looking for, the next two were the "right" way to do it if you want top quality (requires an rgb display or additional transcoding to YPbPr component)

...because the composite out will be forced 480i and will look like shit compared to real consoles or true 240p via VGA.

>>2800118
The composite out can probably be forced to 240p but it will still look inferior to RGB because of dot crawl and bleed.

>>2800118
If you want to try that shit anyway, you'll want to go through your driver's control panel options pretty rigorously. If you can't find anything in there, download an older driver from close to when your graphics card was released.

IMO it looks so bad you might as well use LCD. True 240p, on the other hand is gorgeous and just like the real thing.

Probably can't be, I think you meant. No first-party driver will do it, and it's too inferior for any one to have bothered customising one. Same with built-in S-Video ports.

There's always Linux though, I'll grant.

you could try this, i order one but hasn't arrived yet so i can't tell how good it is

>>2800839
I mine just like that but I got a new TV so its hdmi a few days after it showed up. I never tried it.

I used to use an FX5200 with an S-Video out back in the day.

I believe if your GPU supports interlaced video, you can output a 480i signal from your VGA port.

If you have a softmodded Wii and a softmodded Wii is capable of running the emulators you wish to run that could be an alternative to using the computer.

What an odd and entitled thing to say.

Welcome n00b

Piggybacking on this thread for a quick question. My software for my graphics card appears to support 240p resolutions, however it only has vga and dvi outputs. I would like to hook it up via S-video and i see that monoprice has a vga to s-video adapter. It says that it only works on gfx cards that support tv out. Will this adapter only work on a card thats specifically wired to output s-video from the vga port? Or should this work as long as my card can actually output 240p?

Yes.
