hi i have used a vga 15 pin lead to connect from laptop to tv. using the tv as a monitor is fine however when i play an avi via mediaplayer or realplayer the area of the screen where the motion should be is blank.
Have tried the following
- changed resolution up and down on pc
- tried a youtube clip, this played fine

This is just a shot in the dark and here it goes: Start the display properties (Start/Control Panel/Display), go to the 'Settings' folder (last one), click the 'Advanced' button (bottom right). There should be a 'Displays' folder in there. Make sure you select the external monitor here when using the VGA output, and don't forget to select the internal display again when not using the VGA output. One my laptops (one HP and one Sony), this enables realplayer/mediaplayer output on the VGA output.
