Best T.V Viewing App

RF · December 25th, 2004

Well since there isnt enough tv's in the house for each person I recieved an ATi TV Wonder Pro for xmas last year. Its worked great for just T.V but now I am trying to hook my ps2 up to it.

Trying to play COD:FH on it was very difficult because everything was so dark. ATi's "Software" (Multimedia Center) is less than useful for anything and lags a few seconds behind while displaying video. NOT good at all for game consoles.

So does anyone know of good TV software (trial or freeware) that has good controls over picture/image quality?

Nah, normal cable television is low res like 640x480. HDTV is of course higher, widescreen, and better quality but we dont subscribe to it.

Reich, try dscaler. It's the best by far. The only problem i have with it is i can't make it decode the sound, but for ps2 isn't a problem, as you can hook the audio channels directly to the sound card. Another good one is MoreTV.
