AVS through Hauppauge Nexus
HI everybody!

I browsed through lot of topics, but did not get any information reguarding my idea:

I´d like to visualize AVS (or any other winamp-visualization) through the TV-Out from my Hauppauge Nexus.
I know the Nexus is able to output any mpeg-stream (mpeg1/2) so is there a way to generate this for avs???

Thx

Hauppauge Nexus = ? Search the forums again it tells how to view AVS through TV-out.

It does for the GeForce and ATI cards. You should be able to set up an overlay mode somewhere in your display settings. Set it up to display to the television. Then, in the avs settings, enable the overlay mode.

It should actually run through there natively without any fiddling if its a direct svideo/rca out(you may experience bordering and colour loss which a bit of fiddling will fix).
Also - output at around 800X600 for best results. Anymore won't make a diff when deinterlaced.

The Hauppauge Nexus is a dvb-tv-card, not a video-accelerator. It is able to play mpeg1/mpeg2-streams...

Have you tried the overlay settings? That is what overlay is meant to do.

I will try, but for the moment I don´t understand how AVS will recognize the tv-out from my nexus-card...
Btw which display-settings do you mean? XP has no access to the nexus-tv-out... the only way I know is to access nexus-tv-out through the nexus software....

a friend of mine and me successfully captured and streamed avs (+sound from two turntables into the line-in) over a darwin quicktime server. that means, we have synched audio and video and can spice up our regular dj-sessions with moving images. we're planning to do a public session within the next weeks and then describe the exact procedures. still trying to optimize the quality for low-bandwidth people (we're streaming in mpeg-aac, but try to change sound encoding to ogg).

if you enable overlay mode, the tv-card recognizes avs-overlay as video stream. It can be put throught he tvout just like a movie file

Do you have multimon support? Killa - sounds interesting. Is this a live internet broadcast?

AVS doesn't recognize the TV-out, but your Nexus-card should recognize the overlay settings. Just set the overlay switch in the AVS settings and it should work. You may have to change some settings in the nexus software, but since it's only a tv out card, it should be set up to do it already.

i.e. consult your manual/haupage website.

Why don't you upgrade it then?

Getting something a bit above 1GHz is quite cheap nowadays. And you can get an acceptable GraphicCard with TV-Out for Peanuts! (ok i'm not used to hardware prices in india, but they should be the same)
