Nvidia 5700 to Standard Def TV

Is there a decent way to get a reasonable clear picture on the TV Screen. I'm really not looking to write a novel or anything, just general maintenance on the system in between watching having my Sage TV system running full screen.

The Svideo connection runs decently well in 800x600 mode but the text is just on the very edge of being readable. The card has DVI, VGA and Svideo outputs and was thinking that some form of composit output converter for either the DVI or VGA connection would provide a better picture on the TV.

I would try running at 720X480. That should make it a little clearer. Video tends to look better in that mode too, IMHO of course.

Well that certainly cleaned up my readability problems. Interesting though that I had to go back in and reset the aspect ratio to get the video playback in full screen from being clipped but at least now I can actually read the text in windows.
