DO I need a plug-in and wich one???

[GiZZmo]

Hi,

I just hooked my TV to my PC, everything works except when I want to play an .avi, I don't get any picture on my TVset, it plays on my desktop but not on my tv....

I have Wind XP, AMD 2000+, GeForce 4 MX440 SE, of course the card is compatible with what I want to do with it: to get to play movies from my HD or DVD-rom on my teleset.
I have the latest drivers from Nvidia, everything what I see on my desktop I see on my TV, but not the essential thing --> the movie itself... :oops:

Can someone tell me if I need a different plug-in to be able to play the movie on tv, or is it sometin' else? :(

hehe i know exactly what you mean, on my dads labtop we had the same problem but it turned out that there was a setting under the thinger...

rightclick desktop>properties>settings>advanced button>adapter tab (i think, one of these)>then you should be at some thing that has a computer screen and a tv screen on it, click the screen and somewhere there is like a frequency or something, like maybe ntsc and Pal, but the monitor has one and the tv thing is set to the other, flip them around and that should work... sorry i couldnt be more accurate but its been a while scince ive done this.
