Hi folks,
Do any of you play Thief through a TV (SD or HD)... and if so, what sort of results do you get?
If you use an SD TV, how do you connect? S-Vid, VGA etc?
cheers

Although it's not my primary PC, I have played Thief before on my Dell Zino, which is connected to a 32" LCD TV via HDMI. Looks pretty nice.

I play Thief on a LCD TV Screen. (I dont know the size, but it's huge TV). My pc is connected via VGA. The result is pretty nice.

I play Thief 2 and 3 on SD tube TV. The resolution I use is 800x600, connection is S-Video via my A/V-Receiver. Sound is discrete 7.1. :D

I play thief on a few machines, but for the front room -
I have an old 36" Toshiba with a Diamondtron tube, and have a media PC connected to it via component video. I use an ATi HD3850 under Xp which means I can run games at higher than the native res (720*576) of the TV, so run thief at 1024*764. I use the digital out of the onboard sound straight to a Denon 1906AV amplifier and use expanded stereo (5.1) to give a sudo eax.
And as its a CRT TV the black levels are a dream compared to my LCD in the bedroom.

fantastic, good stuff!
I have a 32" Panasonic Widescreen telly - SD. However, it does have S-Vid in and my older PC has an ATI 4870 (with S-Vid out)... so, I could use this. I tested my Laptop via its S-Vid through the TV the other night, and do you know what? Although txt was a bit rubbish, movies and games were great!
Just want some way of playing thief through a big screen - will be ace! Thinking of getting a big projector, or at least an older rear-projection TV - don't have enough cash for a good new LCD.
Cheers folks :)

Think this will essentially be my option for now, until I get a bigger/better TV
