This may not be the right forum, but it is obliquely DVD recorder-related.
I travel a lot, and bring one of my DVD recorders, to record movies or keep up with favorite TV shows. Some hotel satellite systems start at channel 12 or higher. If the TV is older and has no RCA jacks, I use an RF converter. However, to do so, I need access to channel 3 or 4. Some TV's will not let me access those channels.
So, my question is this: is there a a way to connect my DVDR (yellow/white/red) to my laptop computer, to use it as a TV monitor? I wouldn't even need sound - I just need to set up the DVDR and program timer recordings.
Can this be done?
