Users,

I have two svideo cables connected to my TV. My satellite box and DVD both
work fine with these cables.

When I connect the svideo to my HP laptop and press the TV Now button
nothing happens. I keep getting an error message:


There was a problem enabling TV mode: Check the TV cable and try again

Is there something that I am missing to use my TV as a monitor?

Try opening display first then confirm settings.
