Plug it into your computer and your TV.
Of course your have to fiddle with settings.
First put your TV into TV\Video Mode.
Then on your computer right click on your desktop and select Properties.
Next select the settings tab and click advanced and turn your display to TV.
You also may need to adjust your resolution settings.
this project will work but wont give you excellent quality text but is good for movies and other media.
