I have a computer that is close to my family room TV that I currently have connected to my Stereo to listen to music, internet radio etc on my home theatre. I have a Ti4200 video card in this machine with both S video and RCA video outs. Can I connect this video output to my TV and watch my videos view my pictures etc on my TV? I want to use windows media player or Divx etc. to do this. I'm not interested on playing games or surfing the net etc, only watching video's.

Thanks,

Yes, use the svideo, I have done it myself before.

Your videos will look pretty good on the TV, but Windows itself will not look as good as it does on your computer monitor.

You may need to enable the TV display in Windows in Display - Settings - Advanced somewhere once the cable has been connected.
Most TV's and most TV cards on a computer can only be connected to S-Video or composite video (via an RCA cable), not both.
You may have to set the TV to S-Video input mode, or composite mode, whichever you use, and you have to select something other that TV mode to see the display on the TV (e.g. Video 1, Video 2, etc.)

Thanks for the replies. I'm not at all interested in how the quality of windows looks on the TV - Only my personal pictures, video's both home made and down loaded(Divx, etc,) I wont be using the PC to play DVD's either.

Regards,

All those things will look pretty good on a TV, but they will not look as good as they do on your computer monitor because the resolution of a TV is much less than a computer monitor, the TV has coarser (larger)pixels, the vertical refresh rate of a TV is limited to 50 or 60hz, and the TV display is interlaced - half the lines are displayed at a time.
