Geforce FX S-video out to ATI All in Wonder S-Video In...

Here's what I'm trying to do, run my TV out from my Geforce FX S-Video Out from my primary computer into my all in wonder S-Video in on my secondary computer. Mainly, I want to capture games I'm playing without taking a performance hit on my primary computer by using something like FRAPS. By playing with the NView settings on my primary, I would also be able to swap between that and a crude dual monitor setup.

Here's the problem, I'm only getting Black & White on the second computer. Played with the TV formats, used everyone there was for both cards, ultimately leaving it on NTSC-N for both. I get a good picture and it would be great for everything I want, except its only coming in in black & white. Tried differnt S-Video cables, my first config was using a TV Wonder but I bought the All in Wonder cause of this same problem (I was converting S-Video to Composite by cable with this config though, so I thought that was the problem). I'm left with incompatibility between the digital to analog to digital way I got it all juryrigged, my tv-out on my Geforce FX could be messed up, or it's some stupid setting that I can't figure out. Help please...

Well, definitely nothing wrong with the TV out... works fine on a tv.

Nothing wrong with the AIW, gets great TV in...

So just something about going graphics card to graphics card... Help, please, help...

Sorry I don't have a real answer for you since I don't have your equipment but......
I've used a similar configuration on my computer but not between machines. In my case I jumped from my video-out on my Geforce 400mx to a generic bt878 capture card on the same computer and I had no problems (except for the heavier load). Maybe your ATI is trigerring a false macrovision effect or the signal beween the 2 cards is too low and it can't lock in the color signal. Does this happen even if you play a avi/mpeg on the first computer?
Just as a test, try sending the signal to a vcr and see how that looks. If that's ok then try vcr to ATI. At least you'll know it's not your settings and it's a connector issue. If the vcr test fails then I would guess it's probably a settings issue.
(btw) I recall having some problems getting a clear signal on my tuner card svideo-in connector so went from svideo-tvout to tvcard composite-in using an adapter.

Thanks for the reply, figured it out... 2 bent pins on the AIW dongle, a screwdriver and much patience later, color at last.
