MCE 2005 + TV


Recommended Posts

Hello boys and girls...

Quick question, I recently installed MCE on my PC and I'd like to hook it up to my TV (Only has composite and S-Video inputs) and wanted to know exactly what I would need to do it right. That's basically my question :p

Thanks in advance :)

You need a graphics card that has a TV-out, composite or s-video, preferrably s-video. Then get the relevant cable either composite -> composite or s-video -> s-video. S-video gives a better picture than composite. Your graphics card should detect the tv as a secondary display (or primary if you have no monitor plugged in).

If you are using your TV for sound too, you will need a 3.5mm phono -> 2x RCA (red and white). Plug the 3.5mm into your sound cards line out and the red and white into the red and white inputs on your tv.
