display devices, including retail TVs,
may provide lower quality video. If
you did not order a display device
when you purchased your Media
Center computer, a progressive
scan display device with a VGA
input is the best choice.
■
Quality of video source
—The
quality of the video signal coming
into the Media Center computer has
an affect on the video quality. The
video displayed from the Media
Center is only as good as the source
video signal. Cable, digital cable,
and satellite usually provide better
quality than an antenna.
■
Type of connection used
—You
can connect the Media Center
computer video output to a TV.
However, the connection type has
an affect on the video quality. If
your TV includes a VGA port,
connect the VGA cable from the
Media Center computer’s VGA
(monitor) port to the TV’s VGA In
port for the best quality. Many TVs
do not have a VGA port.
Important
Cable connections
must be made
correctly for optimal
video quality. A poor
cable connection can
lower video quality.
■
Quality of video cables
—Poor
quality or the incorrect type of
video cables can cause problems
and affect the video quality.
Gateway recommends using
high-quality video cables that can
be purchased from the Gateway
Accessory Store.
