Hi all,

Have not posted for a while but am stuck with the above question. Is it possible for me to connect a laptop (for playing films) to the Aux Camcorder jacks on the left hand side of a BV5?  I have previously connected a camcorder and that is all fine, but what hardware/software do I need to get the laptop screen up on the BV5 if at all possible?  or is there another route I should follow in order to connect the PC?

Many thanks all,

You could use an VGA to RCA cable (L, R and video).

Plug your vga cable into the sockets of your bv5 as mentioned above, and mirror the screen on your laptopsetting.

There are also converters available from hdmi to rca or vga. Select the input on your bv and voila!

Thank you for the response. Just bought a converter and will see if it works :)
