hi all,

i've been building a mini entertainment pc out of my old computer that will just play mp3's and hopefully play dvd's on my tv.

however, i ran into the macrovision problem...are there any video cards out there that don't have macrovision on them or are easy to bypass? i read that some old voodoo 3000 cards can do this...are there any others?

thanks in advance.

Don't get a videocard, get a hollywood + dvd decoder card. They're cheap, do a great job of playing dvds, and there's an easily available program called "Zone Selector" that eliminates macrovision.
