• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

This largely depends on the connections available on your MacBook and on your plasma TV. Typically, you'd run a DVI cable from one to the other for video, and an adapter to split the audio from the headphone jack (audio out) into the red/white RCA cables. If you have the new MacBook, then you'll need a adapter to convert the mini Display Port to DVI. This is assuming your TV has a DVI port. Lacking specifics of what you have, an exact answer isn't forthcoming.
