YPrPb adapter

[BlackBumblebeezzz]

Hello, I need to ask you, if those ATI adapters YPrPb to DVI works for geforce 9600. Because they say that it works only for ATI, but if yes, why? ATI has some special DVI input or what? And if yes, where can i buy adapter for geforce?

Thanks

They only work with ATI cards and only certain ATI cards that already have the output on the card. It's an adapter, not a converter.

And welcome to our forums.

Okay thanks. So are there any geforce adapters, or I need to buy a converter which is 70 dolars and more. Or can you please send me some link where i can buy some YPrPb to DVI or VGA?

There are no geforce adapters. Unlike some ATI cards, NVidia cards don't output YPrPB on any pins.

I am assuming you mean that you need a VGA to YPrPB converter, since VGA ports on a video graphics adapter are for output only, and converters are often one-way. You didn't provide a location, and I don't know if one of these two is better than the other, but here are some examples:

Removed link for the Sabrent device in my previous post. The listing on Amazon was misleading. It is a component to VGA converter, not a VGA to component converter.

Okay thanks alot. Can I ask you how... I dont know. Often? Is it overheating, cause i want it for recordin HD footage. So if I can have it on like 10 mins or 4 hours. That would help me alot. Thanks

What exactly is your "geforce 9600"? 9600-what? It most likely has a TV port with Y,Pb,Pr.

The Sabrent device won't work for what you want to do. It turned up in a search for a "VGA to YPrPb converter", but it is actually a "YPrPb to VGA converter". Sorry about the confusion.

What device will you use to make the recording?

[BlackBumblebeezzz]

It is GIGABYTE geforce 9600 GT / gv-n96tzl-1gi / gv-n96tzl-512i and it has VGA, DVI and Hdmi

[BlackBumblebeezzz]

Im gonna record using Hauppauge HD PVR.

That card doesn't have the analog TV output port.

What are you trying to feed an analog signal to?

The HD-PVR connects to the computer with USB2.

What are you trying to record from?

[BlackBumblebeezzz]

Uhm so. I want to recrod PC games. USB sends data to my computer, you know, the data I recorded. But i need to have a YPrPb to DVI or VGA so I can see what I am playing + record it. because i dont use Mac or TV to play on, so i need to have this all in one place. So i need that converter. My good friend has it like that, but the adapter came with his Graphic card.

[BlackBumblebeezzz]

I´m sorry for confusing you, but I am confused so... I am pretty sure that the only thing is to make from YPrPb VGA or DVI.

I only ever remember seeing S-Video mentioned as an output option in the specs for GeForce 9600 cards when I was shopping for parts last year, so I assumed NVidia did not provide YPrPb-out from that port. However, it looks like at least some of the Geforce 9600 cards have a 7-pin mini-din connector that can output YPrPb in addition to S-Video. Too bad your card is not one of them. You will need a VGA to YPrPb converter or a different video card with a dongle.

It sounds like you want to play the game and record it using the same computer. It would be safer to play the game on one computer and connect the Hauppauge HD-PVR to a second computer to record.

Every other 9600-GT has an analog TV port where yours has HDMI.

So you want to record off this card to the HD-PVR and record on the same machine?

If so you need a different display card.

[BlackBumblebeezzz]

If so you need a different display card.

How do you mean? That it wouldnt be working on this one?

Your card has only digital outputs, not analog.

Except VGA which is RGBHV, not Y,PbPr.

[BlackBumblebeezzz]

Yes I tried that, but it hasnt recorded anything.

[BlackBumblebeezzz]

when you select with what you wanna record and there aer only Svideo, composite and YPrPb. so i guess i need YPrPb

[edDV]

A normal 9600-GT has the circular 9-pin TV port with Y,Pb,Pr, composite and S-Video.

[BlackBumblebeezzz]

I dunno, but it seems that youre talking about something and im taliking about something else. the black one is S video and those 2 whites are DVI.

The black one is a 9-pin TV out port, not a 4 pin S-Video.

The whites are DVI-I which contain pins for DVI-D (digital) and VGA (analog RGBHV).

What matters here is that your GeForce 9600 does not have the right connections to use with a Hauppauge HD-PVR. So, you either need a different video card that has the 7-pin or 9-pin S-Video connector (and the matching dongle for it), or a VGA-to-component video converter box. The two options may not be very much different in price.

The quality will be better with the right card rather than conversion.
