Tv Out

[kooky_kramer]

i just purchased myself a Geforce FX5600 256mb DDR with TVin/out

The TV in works fine (im using it now) but i cannot for the life of me get the TV out to work (its one of those yellow AV cables and i have just been plugging that into my TV)

Thanks for your help

PS - i have tried support and the support on the leadtek site is shithouse

how exaclt do i enable the second monitor ??

I am using the nVidia detonator drivers which make the TV in/out an nVidia function, this might be able to get me some help ??

right click on your desktop then go down to properites on the popup menu when the display windows apears click on the tab setting you should see 2 black boxs one with the number (1) and the next with the number (2) click on (2) then go down and to the left and tick the box "extend my windows desktop onto this monitor"

Dont wanna patronise you but I dont know how much you know so I made it easy.
It should work.



Go to Display Properties>>>>>Advanced>>>>>click the GEfOrce tab

1. choose desktop utilities from the pop out box on the left,
the bottom option should be Enable DualView.
Click ok, it may ask you to reboot.

After reboot, it will ask for the CD to install the dual(twinView) drivers.

Reboot..............

2. Goto display properties again. now on the settings tab, select the second
monitor and click on extend my windows desktop to this monitor then ok.
Ur second monitor should now come on, just choose the res and colour.

3. To enable TV out as opposed to 2nd monitor, go to Display settings, settings
tab, select the 2nd monitor and click advanced.
Now choose Geforce tab...2nd option down, SELECT DEVICE. It should
detect your TV, it usually doesnt work so choose the I have tv connected
box. APPLY

reboot.......

I presume you wanna watch movies on tv, so

4. go to Display Properties>>>>settings>>>> select monitor 2 and click
advanced. Choose the Geforce Tab, choose OVERLAY CONTROLS
and set full screen device to AUTO. Now you can play movies in a window
and have it go full screen to the TV (also can minimize video app and still
plays on TV , not media player tho)


Hope this helps. PS did you get the Video Capture working ok?
