Vgc-V2M Tv connect..

Hi there,
i have a question about my new V2M.
I want to connect my vaio to my home theatre system, but if it very simple to connect audio via optical out, the problem is the video signal.
How can get the video signal to connect to tv???

Thank to all....

Max.

I don't think you can do this, all of the video ports appear to be inputs.

I know..... :-((
Its a great limitation, because I cannot see a program recorded without to put it on a dvd..

There is some external device (usb) can do this??

I bought the Vaio for the same reason, and the only way I could think of doing it was to use a roomlink. After a number of posts I've determined the only way is to get a roomlink from the states, which I'm going to pick up next time I'm across.

I did manage to stream video, but it was a long winded approach. Installed the Vaio media software on an IBM think pad with an external video port.

The Vaio is switched on, and connected to a wireless DSL router, the signal is streamed to the laptop through a 22mb wireless card. Works fine which has given me hope that the Roomlink will work, and will have a greater speed 54mb.

Another option might be a PCMCIA card with external TV output ?

Would be expensive

And it would depend on whether the PC had a Zoomed Video enabled PCMCIA slot.
