T.V. Tuners & PS2

Shadowsilence · Posted: Fri, 01 Apr 2005 01:35:54 Post Subject: T.V. Tuners & PS2

I purchased a HAUPAUGE|WINTV-PVR 350 T.V. Tuner so I could play PS2 on my monitor. Well the picture is horrible and there is a two second lag between the controller movement and what is displayed. Unsatisfied I'm returning it and losing $30 due to restocking fees. Bang Head

Does anyone have any experience in this area? I don't want to buy a T.V. because my room is very very small, and it would make to much clutter. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.

I have seen VGA kits for game consoles, but most of them aren't in american currency, I feel quite out of luck.

I only play my PS2 through my Leadtek TV2000XP deluxe. No lag at all, I run it with Dscaler which is excellent. To improve image quality try using Svideo to connect to your capture card. That said the quality is never going to be excellent on a high resolution computer monitor.

Have you returned it yet? If not, let me know how much you paid for it. I might be interested.

I gave up on it all, and got a 20" Nocent LCD t.v. Which I have to say is awsome for PS2, I also can watch my DVD's now and do stuff on my computer. Although it takes up alot more room.
