[PLUG] Wrong tv tuner card...

Has anyone gotten reasonable gaming performance connecting a 
Playstation II to their PC via a Hauppauge PVR 150 card and 
using MythTV?

The Hauppauge site says that connecting a gaming console to the 
PVR 150 is the one thing you aren't supposed to do.  Oops!  I 
finally got the card to work in Windows 2000, geez that was 
hard.  Thing is, there is a 1-2 second lag, so Dark Cloud is 
totally unplayable.

I don't have room for a television, and a television is going to 
be somewhat expensive, especially if I try to get a flat panel
television.

Is there an adapter that can convert the Playstation II's RCA jacks 
to a VGA plug?  I'm thinking of not going through a computer at all
possibly using such an adapter instead to get the Playstation II to
output on my LCD monitor.

I guess I bought the wrong TV tuner card.  At least it was cheap.
