X41 Tablet TV out

#1 Post by bowopt » Tue Dec 12, 2006 8:41 pm

Hi,

I have a X41 Tablet with no S video, how do i connect it to a Tv? I read there is a VGA converter but would it also enable me to listen to audio plays from the laptop or the audio would still be from the laptop?

Thanks.

if you have a flatscreeen tv you can probably just connect to the vga port on the tv. Most flatscreens have one.

Also if you have a moderately advanced CRT-tv (you know, the old ones), it might have one of those also.

The audio however, doesn't go through the vga cable. You will have to buy a 3.5mm stereo plug to RCA connector and a RCA to Scart (or whatever your standard is) converter.

Just plug it in to the headphone jack and the other end in the tv and voila!

Have you checked if your tv has vga input?

And the converter is a RCA to SCART, any brand will do. And the audio cable is 3.5mm stereo to RCA, any brand will do.
