If you really do need a product that will allow you to connect a computer to a CRT TV for whatever reason, then you might be interested in the TV One scan converter listed below, which I currently use to connect my macbook laptop to a TV or video mixer in church (see article at the bottom of page).



Do you have a large screen Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) TV and wished you could connect your computer to it and obtain a decent picture, well have a look a the link below, I haven't tried the circuit, but it does look promising.

Reasons for connecting your computer to a large screen CRT TV include playing computer games, using your computer as a DVD player or just plain surfing the net on a huge screen.

You will need soldering skills or you can ask a friend to help with the soldering.
