Connecting my laptop to the tv

Is there any single application that does this convertion?
Any ones I used caused the lip syncing to be off by a second or two. I've seen a guide to doing it on afterdawn.com but that required about 6 steps with 6 different applications.

What's the format of the files you downloaded? I thought most downloads were MPEG4,XVID or DiVX?

It's possible that all you have to do is to copy them, without any conversion, to a data CD or data-DVD. Any basic disc burning sofware will do. The free DiVX player will do this by drag & drop.

This player costs $70 in the USA and seems to support the popular download formats. I think there are a few other machines. I even saw one that could play from a USB stick.

Transcoding is mostly only necessary if you're copying a DVD to play on a portable media player.

I have a 7 pin SVideo out on my laptop. Most of them on eBay are 4 Pin but say it should be compatable with 7 Pin. Can someone let me know if this would be suitable? [broken link removed]
