Hi there

I have an AOpen Magic V-18 Pro mpeg card.

This card has a monitor output behind and I noticed it also has another output for TV.

With this TV output (resembles 3.5mm jack), I would like to know:

1) Can a TV be connected to it and act as a monitor like displaying Dos/Windows?
2) Can it be used on a modern TV set?
3) If yes all, what cable should I ask for when I want to purchase one?

Thanks for the help.

These are assumptions only, I've no knowledge or documentation of the card type.

1) If the card doesn't function as a "primary" display device (video card), then it's unlikely you'll be able to view your DOS/Windows session. It's probably for MPG out only, if anything. Like a tape player without the tuner ability.
2) Since the download section lists most of the drivers circa '97, it should.
3) See if this helps at all. It could be a variant of S-video, but I can't see it. No documentation.

HTH, and sorry for the speculations.
