VIDEO_TS from Powerbook to TV ?

I have been burning my VIDEO_TS onto DVD-RW for some time, but it would be great if I could play my VIDEO_TS files directly from my Powerbook ( or any computer for that matter )directly on to my TV. If this is possible, what is needed to do so?

 

the correct connections.
what powerbook?
what inputs does the tv have?

 

4 year old Powerbook G4 1.25GHz with round 7 pin "S video" outlet
TV has RCA and S-VHS inputs. B

 

If I did my homework correctly, you have a 15 inch Powerbook.
That machine has a dvi output. Your problem is simple.

All you need is a $20 cable and some rca cables.

Thank you thelox714.Stupid me! Yes you are correct it is a 15" PB.

So my conclusion is that I need an RCA cable (yellow) and a minijack with an RCA split (red and black) for audio. Am I correct?B

 

Yes

 

hi...just wondering how are you playing the Video_TS on your powerbook in the first place?

i tried on my friends computer earlier today with Quicktime, Windows Media, Itunes, DVDPlayer, and none would play the video_ts.ifo file inthe Video TS folder.

how are you doing it?
thanks

 

I simply drag the Video_TS folder on to the DVD Player.app icon or alternatively open the disc image (.img )in VLC. B

Hope that works for you. B

 

agreed.. i open dvd player, apple + O, find the video_ts folder, select it, and hit play.
