    So, since i cant burn movies from my Itunes onto a dvd, i was thinking that i could either play movies from my laptop and output them to my tv OR

    is it possible to output movies from my ipod touch to tv ? so i dont have to lug around my laptop lol, i can just bring my ipod and a cable...


    Is this even possible?

    Any help (even if its a no, not possible) would be great

    Thanks

    Yes it is possible, they sell such cables on the apple store. Though I don't know how good the quality is because videos that are on your ipod are compressed so I'm not sure, check some reviews out or hopefully someone with experience can come in and let you know, but again yes you can play video and sound out through RCA cables they sell :)
