OK, I'm sure that there is something I'm missing,
but I finally used my ATI AIW 8500DV for video out.
I set my TV to 2nd monitor, using s-video.
well, I can see my computer desktop fine on the TV.
I can play mpg files fine.
when I try and play avi files, it is blank.
I wanted to use my computer to play divx files and out them to TV for others to watch, but no matter what player I use, the avi file is seen fine on my computer monitor, but blank on my TV. if I don't make it full screen, everything else is visible too.
Anyone know why? I would think it isn't resolution, since my monitor is set at 1028x768, and that is seen.
