    Hello,
    what I would really like is is an adapter that would let me plug one of its connectors to
    my videocard and the other to my (old, analog) TV antenna input and watch PC-
    content on the TV.
    I already have A TV-card which is supposed to do that (Hop-Hog)
    but doesn't work very well.
    I wonder if anyone reading this is aware of any such adapter, or where to ask, I'd be real grateful

    You'd need a RF modulator. (Or a TV with a SCART connector, or some other video in connector.) It must be a really old TV not to have some kind of video in!?!

    Yes, it's a 1988 Sony Trinitron, still razor-sharp...but I do have a VCR which has SCART so I guess I'll go through that.
    Too bad though, I can easily picture the adapter: USB-connector on one side and RF on the other...

    Yes, your VHS can act as the RF modulator. An RF adapter would (just like the VCR) accept video in. Forget about your USB to RF "adapter". It doesn't exist, and probably never will. RF modulators expect analog video in, not digital data (which USB delivers).
