Using the T41's S-Video output to play video

[holtrav]

Hi, I have a T41 and I am trying to make the S-Video output work properly. I can make it work with a television to show regular windows stuff, but when I try to play any kind of video playback, including DVD's it just shows up blank on the tv while it plays normal on the lcd screen. No one can seem to tell me why this happens or if it can be fixed. ANy help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
