XVID video files won't display on external monitor?

Question

I used Kantaris and other video players which work fine on my computer. However when I connect the cable to my tv using the s-video or using a projector the video player screen is black even though the movie is playing. If I play the movie in windows media player it displays fine. Why will my other video players not display when connected to an external monitor?

Answer 1

You have to find out what display resolution your TV is, and set the player to match it. Using sVideo, it's probably 720h x 480v or 640h x 480v.
