Hello

I am trying to use my laptop as a dvd player for my tv. I got the S-video cable going between the 2, and the desktop, mouse cursr, windows and pictures all show on the tv beautifully. Its the movies and music videos that dont show up, theres a purple/blackish box that appears where the movie should be on the tv. What do i need to get the movie to show on the tv?

Thanks so much guys
