Connecting a GPU to a TV - Club CDFreaks

Buba · 25-05-2003

Hey,

A film has just arrived at my computer and I wanted to connect the TV to the GPU to view the film from the sofa

.

I have a GF4Ti4400 from Leadtek (See second column of this page), a VIVO-connector and a TV with SCART-connection. I also have a 'block' that I can put into the SCART-connection, the inputs of the block are 1 red, 1 white and 1 yellow (the video-input).

In the manual of the GPU there is no info listed about connecting the GPU to a TV, but on the back of the GPU-box a picture shows that with the VIVO-cable I can connect it to the TV.

I can't figure it out. Can anyone help me ??

Found an image:

When I use this connection between my GPU and TV, nothing appears on the TV-screen (not even if I switch to EXT1 on the TV).

umm... have you enabled the tv as a screen in your nview setup?

right click on desktop > properties > Settings> advanced > Geforce Ti4400 > nView

Yep... that was the problem. Thanks !!!
After changing some settings I got my desktop of my PC on the TV.
