Apple Mini-DVI to Video Adapter
Won't feed TV coax or antenna connection

FYI, this Apple video adaptor won't work with older and/or cheaper TVs that have only a coax cable input or two screws for old flat TV antenna wire. For those TVs you'll need an RF modulator, available at Shack/Comp/Best/Circuit/etc. The pic quality using an RF modulator won't be as good as through this Apple connector.

I have a 12 in. powerbook with a mini dvi port on it. This is a different kind of plug in and it won't fit. I don't know what I should do because i still want an adapter. It would be great if I could use it though.

works great, but is it practical?

When I first hooked it up to my MAC Mini, It displayed horizontal bands the screen. I switched the RCA cable to a monster cable and the banding was gone. While playing a Star Wars DVD, I noticed some pixilation in the image that doesn't appear when using a pure dvd player.
I connected it to a 14 year old Sanyo television and picture quality was ok, but not as good as a dedicated DVD player. I unfortunately like DVD Sound, so I can't see myself using this as a main DVD player. Some people have said the Mac Mini is good for use as a media centre, but if sound is important, then this won't be acceptable.
I have to agree with other comments, the text is barely readable using the composite connection. My TV doesn't have S-Video input and I susspect it would be a little bit better, but I can't say for certain.
I gave it a 4 star rating because it does what it says it can do, it just doesn't meet up to my personal visual and digital audio expectations.36 of 53 people found this useful

Dual-head displays rock - especially on Mac!

I bought this to watch DVDs and other video on my television and it does that quite well, but what I'm loving right now is the ability to show photo slideshows on it. Using the screensaver which pulls from iPhoto Smart Albums, the system displays two different images from the set on each display making for a beautiful montage.
Way to go!1464 of 2071 people found this useful
