How can I watch downloaded films from my macbook on my TV

[RoobyMurray]

It's possible, right? It must be

ok, I've found Apple TV for £99. Is that the only way to do it?

The MacBook should, in one way or another, be able to connect straight to the TV and use it as a big monitor.

How you do that depends on exactly which MacBook you have (and therefore which outputs it has) and what TV do have (and therefore which inputs it has).

If you provide a bit more information on both then someone will know which cable you'll be after to help you out.

As a quick aside I'll also say that I hope that you're not illegally downloading these films from some site on the internet...

hehe, thanks BP. So it's just a case of getting the right cable. I think we can manage that!

And no, I'm not into illegal shenanigans

It "should" just be a cable.

Which MacBook do you have and what sort of TV is it?
