If the laptop's got an HDMI out and the TV has HDMI in, that's probably the easiest way.

If you have a PS3/Xbox copy the file across to a USB memory stick and put that into your console.

Has your tv got a VGA port in the back of it? If so then just a VGA to VGA lead will do it.

If not then you can buy a VGA to HDMI convertor on Ebay for a few quid then buy the relevant leads and do it that way.

Remember some leads need other sound outputs.

Do you own a PS3?

If so you can stream from laptop to PS3 and watch
