[satyam90]

I have Mac book pro with Mac OSX 10.4.1.
Can some one tell me how can I connect it to my TV to view what ever playing on my Mac over TV

what kind of TV and which video/audio connection are you wishing to use?

im going to assume you have an LCD/Plasma with HDMI. you going to have to use a DVI-HDMI cable and either a mini jack to optical audio cable or mini jack to RCA audio cable.

p.s. i would recommend updating to 10.4.11 as the updates have made Tiger super stable and secure.

I've used a Mini-DVI > DVI (female) adapter (apple sells this one). Then a DVI (male) > HDMI (female) adapter. Then just a regular HDMI cable to the TV. Works a treat for me, however I think you may get some overscan depending on which type of TV you have.

EDIT: Sorry forgot to mention that this option doesn't transmit sound to your TV

I have a old model CRT TV. It has inlets/outltes for Audio/Video.
