Sooo... Question about VIVO.

[Stu L Tissimus]

Topic title is pretty self-explanatory. Are VIVO connections fast enough to plug in a console (a GCN, specifically) and play without any significant lag between a buttonpress and an action on the screen? Does it differ between ATi's and nVidia's implementations?

And, on a side note.... doesn't VIVO sort of make All In Wonder cards useless?

Not entirely; the AIW cards also have TV tuners. (Though one could reasonably argue that since they're still only including analog tuners in the AIW cards instead of HDTV tuners, that they are mostly useless...)

I dont know for sure, but I am almost postive I have read on these forums that there is a significant lag when using VIVO for console gaming.

Bump for good measure. Anybody else have opinions on the speed?

And how could I forget analog tuners? *doh*
