How to view DVD's on my TV that I play through my PC DVD player?

OK...here is my question. First of all I have a SIS 31564 MEG AGP video card with TV-OUT. It has S-Video and Composite Video out. Now, to view view DVD's on my TV that I play through my DVD player on my PC, do I run a single RCA cable from the Composite Video out on my video card to the RCA "VIDEO IN" jack on my VCR?. I don't have any inputs on my TV except COAX. Thanks for the help in advance.

Jerry:

 

RCA composite should work as a bridge to your CO-AX only TV - but be advised, trying to use the VCR to record them will not work due to the Embedded "MacroVision ". - For more Details on "Macrovision" and other DVD playback & use questions try going to Doom9.

 

xbot: I've never set up exactly what you have, but I would think the procedure you outline should work. You'll need to run a length of coax from the VCR's VIDEO OUT jack to the TV's COAX jack, of course, just like you would for an ordinary VCR to TV setup. Your PC is your signal or program source, feeding to the VCR, then to the TV.

Did any hookup instructions come with your video card?

Get back to us to let us know how everything works out.

 

No hookup instructions AT ALL. Not even on the website...or on the web for that fact. Thanks for all of the help.
