From: folk1e I want to display a realtime TV program (UK) on a PC projector ..... is it possible using a video recorder to decode the PAL signal? This is a 1 off so I would prefer not to have to buy a TV card for the laptop, but I don't know if it is possible ..... or just too much hassle. |

From: Joe Offer I'd guess the easiest way would be to use a VCR as a tuner, and plug that into the projector - but that depends on what output plugs you have on the VCR, and what inputs you have on the projector. Might be cheaper to get a TV card for that laptop... -Joe- |

The projector is a BENQ with audio and video jacks (coaxial), USB, S video, and D-sub/comp (15 pin) inputs! I assume the sets of inputs are not compatable with the outputs. |

From: Bernard You should be able to do it simply enough with a SCART to RCA (phono) with yellow (composite out), red (audio out right) and white (audio out left) plugs. The same applies with DVD players. The adaptors are easily purchased from pretty much anywhere that sells TV and Video equipment... Maplins definitely have them. |
