Anyone had much experience with TV-Out on an S3 card?

I got it working but for some reason XP will only let it display in 4 bit. If I use QuickRes I can fuck around and get it to display as 16bit but only at 640 x 400, which shows tiny on the TV.

Oh and just in case anyone else decides to make their own cable, scart sockets kick out a little bit of juice so don't strip wire with your teeth... unless you're into that sort of thing.

Oop. Dont worry. Ok now. Might have been because I was going through the scart socket instead of the direct RCA connections.
