I recently bought a dvdrom for a pretty good price, thinking I could watch DVD's on my computer and on the TV. I have an ATI RAGE 32MG Video Card that supports Video-Out and S-Video to the TV which I have tried before and it worked. (This is prior to getting the DVD, which is where I got the idea why I should get one) After installing the DVD-ROM and making sure it works (no problems with the comp) I tried going through the TV. The picture on the TV would not show up. So I gave up, and went back to the monitor to find out what's wrong. Everything in my Video Setup was fine. But, while looking through WinDVD2001 Readme.txt it said that it does not allow a user to play DVD via TV due to the fact that it could be recorded.
So that is my problem. Is that true? And if so, is there something that I could do to play on the TV? Perhaps using a different program? But, since the screen does not show up on the TV while booting up, do I have to get rid of WinDVD all toghether? Someone please help. Thanks a lot.
