Hi,

I have a MacBook and I would like to connect the video output using the Apple miniDVI to DVI video adapter to my TV.
Essentially to be able to watch netflix Watch Instantly content (it only runs on Windows).
I am using BootCamp 1.4 and running Windows XP Pro.

Does it work on Windows or is something needed like a driver, 3rd party software, etc.?

No reason it shouldn't work, but I can't say from experience.

I've using Parallels Desktop 3.0 in order to make it work, however the experience with netflix ins't that great, has a lot of pixelation and delays.
