Anyone know of a tv out device that connects to USB/PCMCIA/Cardbus?
I am looking to use my laptop as a media center and need to find a device that either gives me RCA or COAX out if at all possible.
I can find tons of TV Tuners but this is not what I am looking for. I want to go the other way.
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

The real answer lies in completely understanding the question!

Composite (One RCA cable) will usually look terrible unless you have a very small TV for display. Many laptops have S-video out and VGA out. VGA isn't much good unless you are watching on a computer monitor. S-Video is better than composite, but your TV would need that input. Some S-video out jacks also have composite included, but you would need a adapter cable.
But yes, there are converters that are mostly used for presentations like Power Point for business meetings. Most aren't really suited for video. These video ones were found with a quick scan at NewEgg. Some convert VGA to TV video:

Thanks for the info. Obviously my laptop has no tv out or I would not be looking for a converter LOL. I searched newegg top to bottom and could not find these. Thanks for the info.
I am open to hearing any info from people who have maybe used one.The real answer lies in completely understanding the question! -
