Various Topics on Videocard Nvidia

..

I've got an AGP graphics that shows up in my WinXP PC as an Nvidia Geforce2
MX. I'm new to this thing called video capture and I don't know what
software I need. The graphics card has a couple of round ports on it (next
to the monitor socket), one like a phono socket (yellow) that's labelled
'comp out' ('composite out'?) and another socket (black) which is a multipin
(bit like a din socket).
I expect I would plug an external video feed into this socket to make it
appear on my computer screen.
What software do I need to display the video image, and where can I get it?
Is there any freeware that does this?
And what would the adapter be called that I need to plug into the din-like
socket?, and where could I get it?
Thanks for any help.

Unless the card specifically allows for Video In, it's only Video OUT....
the multipin is an S-Video the other is composite out.....

Do you have a QuickStart Guide or similar that come with the card? It should
have some sort of diagram on those ports.
Yellow port - Composite or RCA
Multipin - S-VIDEO [4pins]

You can use either of those port to attach to either your TV or VCR.

If you using the latest driver like 61.77, this link should show you howto
set or configure Multi-display -
