I'm trying to watch shows (that I've recorded using Media Center) on my
television. My television is old and doesn't have an s-video connection so my
pc is hooked up through my vcr/dvd player with an s-video cable (I used the
same set-up on my old Windows 98 pc to show PowerPoint presentations on my
tv).

Here's my question... I recently read somewhere that MCE can only be
connected to a TV and not a vcr/dvd, so before I waste any more time with
this (2 weeks so far) I want to verify if this is true. Does anyone know?
Thanks so much!!!!

There should be no reason that you can't connect the appropriate video =
card output (S-Video, etc.) to your VCR and feed the output of the VCR =
to the TV, as long as you have compatible connections.
