HDTV/Component input on Loewe Articos

05-07-2002, 8:34 AM

Hi there,

ATI has just released it's HDTV dongle for the Radeon 8500 graphics card. With it, you can use a HDTV to show the output of your computer in full 480i, 480p, 720p and 1080i glory ;-)

My new 32" Loewe Articos will be delivered next saturday. It's not a HDTV but it does allow for component input. Would the ATI HDTV dongle do me any good?

Greets,
Jorg

Check out www.ati.com. I think I read there somewhere that it will only be available in the US. But there's probably a US company that will ship overseas ;-)

Anyone know if the Loewe Articos does any of the above mentioned HDTV modes?

Greets,

I can't totally confirm this since I've also been looking at the Loewe TVs (as a next replacement if my Tosh TV has a fault). I'm pretty sure that the Loewe TVs can to NTSC prog.scan (480p so it should be able to do 480i as well). Can't confirm that the TV supports PAL prog.scan though and I'm pretty sure it won't support 1080i.

The TV can be upgraded via modules and thats the only way to get these modes. Best to check with Loewe directly mate.
