Re: adding RCA audio/video out to a computer?

I'm interested in taking one of my older systems (800 Mhz to 1.4 GHz) and
setting it up to watch videos on my TV.

I will most likely install Ubuntu (linux) due to its ease of use and
stability.

As a player software, I'll use VLC media player, because it seems to be
able to play
just about anything I've thrown at it.

The problem for me, however, is getting the video to the TV.


I'd like to have something that would let me send the video & sound
through RCA cables. The back of the TV and VCR both have RCA audio & video
in jacks, so it would be the easiest way for me to get both the sound and
video to the TV set.

Can anyone recommend a product that would get the job done for me, and
which would work well in Ubuntu/Linux?


Thanks!




Get a TV card or an ATI all in wonder

good luck finding something that has driver and is stable
