Hi,
I was just browsing around gamepc and found this;
For those who like to output to large screens, or connect a VCR or Camcorder, the S-Video port on the Radeon 9700 is fully functional as video in and out. The retail boxed card comes with an S-Video to Composite adapter, along with quite lengthy S-Video and Component video cables.
Direct Article Link - See bottom paragraph.
If im reading this right, then the S-Video out on the 9700pros can also function as S-Video in. Is this true? And what software would i need to use this ability?

Hmm if i recall that is only true if you have the "all in wonder" edition of the card which provides video in and out features.

I don't think that's correct. I haven't seen any 9700 pro's with vivo on them yet.

that would be fantastic if true. Could hook up a video camera and stuff. Software would be key probably.

I was thinking that. It`d be cool if it could. I`ve allways wanted to play my GC through my PC.
