KnoppMyth on a 320G drive

One thing I have found out just recently, is, use RCA's only as a last 
resort.

Leave the RCAs left and right audio connected.
Do not connect the RCA video.
Connect the S-video.
S-video is  so much cleaner and better than RCA.

This of course is just from the commercial DVD player to the TV.
I do have an s-video connector on the Hauppage PVR-250, but never have 
got KnoppMyth to show up on the TV yet.
