Default [Answered] Dual Screen - Scart TV + Monitor

Hey, is there anyway of connecting a PC to a TV + Monitor with decent quality?

The TV only has scart and RGB connections.

I tried using the s-video cable to scart to connect the TV but it was pretty dire quality.
Is there anything on the market that I could use to get a better picture quality?

Hey Jon,

You'll never get a TV to display the kinds of quality/resolution that can be displayed on a TFT monitor for a PC, or at least the kinds of resolutions that your graphics card is capable of displaying.

A standard TV can only display a resolution of 720x576, which is very poor.

If you have a HDTV, you can display much higher resolutions. A 720p HDTV for example can display a resolution of 1280x720. A 1080p HDTV can display a resolution of 1920x1080. However, your going to also need a HDMI/Digital connection to be able to display these kinds of resolutions.

EDIT: Marked as Answered.
