Q. I have video files on my laptop that I want to play on a television screen. Is it possible to play them on the television without burning to a DVD and using a DVD player? Is there anything like a USB to RCA cable that could export the video signal as if it were from a DVD or VHS player? Would I need a special program to do this?
Thanks.
Thanks.
A. If you buy the proper VGA cable you can hook up the laptop to an LCD tv and act as a giant monitor...its pretty awesome. However if you do not have an LCD TV you're options are somewhat limited. If your laptop has S-video out or something like that you could go that route. I'm aware of products that convert s-video to RCA but I'm not sure about USB. Check out some consumer level video editing solutions you may find what you're looking for with one of those. Or if your laptop has firewire and you have a camera that has firewire you may be able to pass the signal through the camera to the TV. I'm not sure how tech savy you are.

How do I get a video from windows movie maker off the computer?
Q. I want to take a video from windows movie maker and take it off the computer so I can watch it on my tv. How can I do that if I don't have firewire or a recordable cd or dvd?
A. A pc or laptop comes w/ a female 15-pin VGA port (can handle audio & video), an earphone pl port and S-video port.
1. IF TV set is the newer type, i.e., LCD, usually it comes w/ a VGA 15-pin female port.
Get a male to male vga cable & connect pc/laptop to TV via vga cable similar to connection pc-> monitor.
2. If TV has only composite-rca Red/white audio and /S-video ports, get a cable <pl jack to rca> and connect stereo pl to pc/laptop earphone port for audio. For video, connect w/ S-video cable.
Play your finished movie (avi or wmv file) on media player* not on wmmaker (video editing app) - might not be rendered yet (still w/bumps ang potholes). Finish your movie first on wmmake- step 3, save to computer as avi (if you have disk space) or wmv; use highest resolution (640x480) & not less, as it gets pixelated on TV playback.
or save your avi movie to flash memory and have it dvd burned at a friend's or at Walmart and use dvd player to TV(much simpler)
