TV as a Monitor

[Aigol]

ok I just bought a 26in widescreen HDTV and I decided to also hook it up to my computer. On the box it says a resolution of 1366x768 or something like that but when I hooked it up bioshock would only run at 720x586 or something like that. is it because of the input I am using I am currently using S-video. Also is it normal for non HD channels to look fuzzy when sitting closer to the t.v.

Also is ther a DVI to HDMI cable that has a piece to plug into my adio outout

Thanks for all the help

Yes SD channels will look kindof crappy... because SD broadcasts are... well... kindof crappy.

SVideo is not able to output at the resolution you want... you'll need to connect dvi, component, or vga to get to 1366.
