    dunno if this is the right place for this question, but here goes...

    I recently got a samsung DLP tv for my bedroom, I connected my pc to it using a 15 pin cable (video cable) at the computer it goes in thru the seconday in the card which is a dvi, so im using an adapter, problem is that when I run avi videos (animes mostly), I get sound in the tv but no video, I get a black screen using media player classic and windows media player, but shows normal on the pc.

    any ideas?

    What's the picture like when you connect your tv to the primary output? If it plays OK you should get a monitor cable splitter- sends the same signal two ways from the primary output.
