TVTool

TVTool was developed to replace the poor support video card manufacturers had for TV-OUT TVTool transforms your PC into a multimedia central. It was developed to replace the poor support video card manufacturers had for TV_OUT.

The main feature of the application is the the control center for the TV output of nVidia graphics cards, which exceeds the possibilities offered by the driver in many ways.

By programming the TV chips directly many parameters can be adjusted which are not accessible normally at all. This includes fullscreen image size on TV without black borders for example, or movie playback at natural DVD resolutions with highest picture quality.

Around this core functionality TVTool contains a set of additional features. This includes soundcard control, one-click TV playback of media files, a zoom window improving readability, several hotkeys, a resize feature to make the picture fit TV screen perfectly and a lot more comfortable functions.

Additionally, TVTool has an integrated infrared remote control software. In conjunction with the TVTool Sconi, an infrared receiver for the USB bus, it is possible to remote control your PC with any infrared remote control just like you are used from other home entertainment devices like your CD player for example.
