    Post MPEG Decoder Card Question

    Ok, I was given an MPEG Layer 2 Decoder card that has TV out on it. On the inside of the board there is a connector that would connect to a standard VGA card. My question is, would I be able to hook the VGA card to the MPEG card and use the TV out feature or would it only work while playing DVD's? Also, on a similar topic, my video card recently went out, age I guess and I have a replacement but its not mine so its not permanent. My 2nd question is that could I hook this MPEG card to my old VGA card and use the 15pin monitory connector off the MPEG card. I dont know anything about DVD etc, but just thought Id see if this thing was worth my time without DVD. Anyway, thanx in advance.

    1. On my DVD card the video out will only work on DVD playback
    2. I dont think so.(based on what I have seen from the 3 different DVD cards I have owned) now granted that none of them sounded like the one you have so YMMV on both questions.
