[QUOTE="Fillysports, post: 1120174, member: 174438"] Thanks for the reply. Yes, I have tried 'Mirror', Extended, Gather Windows etc, without any success. I'll give it one more try later when I power the TV on but not expecting any success. And yes the reason I am returning the cable was that it was purchased to connect the MBP to this TV. I only tried the others for troubleshooting purposes. Assuming no luck I saw a Mini-DisplayPort to DVI with an associated DVi-RGB cable, I was thinking of purchasing that, eliminating the entire digital option in this - in regards to the TV input. Any thoughts that this may not work, that I could have the same issue, I wouldn't think so with the RCA jacks but never done much with DVI. Attached below is the cable I was thinking of, if you or anyone has other recommendations for another option let me know. Thanks again for the assistance and reply.
