Hi, everybody,
I want to know something...
I´ve downloaded some very good DivX movies
and also some Videos, and I would like to know how to connect
my PC to a TV, (a 36¨ TV, lol)...
I know that I could buy a DVD/DivX player,
but what nned is there?
And I have also heard that some CPUs come with a
video output, Well, mine doesn´t,
so, I was wondering If I can get my PC one of those...
Ok, I´d apreciate any help you can give me,
Thank you...

60.00 to 500.00 us
if your not a gamer, (obviously :P) you only need a cheap one, make sure it has s-video out
and you might need a adapter if your 36" tv doesn't have s-video inputs, it should if its newer than 5 years old

This would be the way to go. Get a video card with s-video out.

You can get a device for about £100 that converts the existing signal coming out of your video card, and transmits via radio waves to a receiver that you plug into the scart socket on your TV, for ultimate coolness!

or just get a video card with TV out and a good cable for 80 bucks, plus u'll have a videocard (and more memory for your pc)

I was thinking about getting one of those (I think the distance is too far for s-video cable), then I realised it was cheaper to get a Divx DVD player.

Yeah, I only ever use mine now to transmit my aquarium screensaver onto my widescreen TV downstairs, it impresses guests, that sort of thing, etc... B)

You can get a DVD player for under $100US that will play Divx files.
I recently bought the Philips DVP642 for $70 and it works like a champ.
