Hello,

I have a media centre pc which is in the office, and want to connect it to 2, eventually 3 tv's, what is the best way of doing this. This is connected to Satellite tv and I want to watch live tv through the PC on the big screen tv, as well as streamm DVD's and Music. Can I use LAN to a media centre extender and then connect by HDMI or DVI cable to the TV.

Hi,
A scan converter is a device that translates the computer's video signal into standard TV formats. You may need to set up a scan converter to connect your computer and TV if, between them, the two do not support any compatible combination of AV cable technologies like S-Video, HDMI, DVI or HDMI-to-DVI or VGA . Newer televisions, however, generally support multiple types of digital inputs, and finding the right cable should not be too difficult.
