I'm tired of watching movies on my monitor and want to watch it instead on my big TV. What devices do I need to buy make it happen. I prefer if it's wireless.
I wanna watch movies that are on my hardrive on my big TV, what do I need to buy?

Any of my ATI cards that have had NTSC output usually don't display video files out to the TV unless you turn video acceleration off, which you don't want to do.
Personally, I have my modded xbox networked to my PC so I just fire up windows media center on the xbox and I can browse all the media on my PC hard drive, (pics, MP3's, video, etc.)Comment

yes.. but as i said.. dvd-rs are just as cheap and hold a lot more shit..
which can come in handy when your avi is just a tad long and doesn't quite fit onto a cdr.. (happens quite often with full movies and such)Comment

don't know if that's an upgrade/crossgrade or what compared to regular XP..
but looks like it's a requirement.
plus there's other things that do this.. but if i remember correctly they did it poorly.Comment

I've got the linksys media center thing, and it's pretty nice. You just run a little server app on your windows box and tell it what directories to share.
Saves a lot on not having to burn tons of discs.
edit: actually the one I have is different from the one posted above

I bought a S-Video to A/V cable, tried to connect it in my video card but couldn't see any image on the TV. I spent a few long minutes doing this and reading the video card manual, then I put the cable away and forgot about it.
I'll try again when I'm very relaxed.Comment

Could also wait for next generation TV like the one HP came out with.
Not sure about buying and HP TV though...but more manufactures are planning this most likely.

burn it in its regular .wmv or .mpg format and plop it on your dvd player.
Great quality no need for a dvd burner.
Get the terapin DVD player, it plays every format possible.
