Hello,
I have a Dell Inspiron 510m laptop with an SVideo output & am trying to get Mediaportal out to the TV.
Mediaportal works fine on the laptop but I can't get anything to come up on the TV. I am getting a connection since I see flashes on the TV when I switch the output. In pressing the CRT/LCD option the switch the output the display remains on the laptop, however. Also I have plugged the svideo connection through my DVD recorder (its the only svideo port I have) and if I try to record what I am playing on MP it says 'No input'.

The video card in the laptop (Intel 82852/82855) is set at 60Hz and seemingly can't be changed - is that the problem ?

I think MP is excellent and I'd really like to make great use of it, buy a hauppage card etc - thanks to all that have done fantastic work on this project ! However, first I need to get it up on the TV !

Any help you can offer would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Martin
