Sounds like it is easier to just buy a TV. There is a nice device a friend uses to put video tape (or any video input) onto DVD with a DVD-RW. It cost about $400 at Best Buy I think. It even has a S-VHS input.

If you can find a DVD player with VGA output you can easily connect it to a computer monitor. Many DSS tuners have VGA output, especially those which are HD. So you could actually use your computer to watch satellite and DVD and forego a TV entirely.

Alternatively you could look for a DVD player with DVI output and use that with one of the newer digital flat panel LCD monitors which has DVI input on it. DVI output is harder to find than VGA, and you can generate VGA from Component Video or SCART because they are all analog whereas DVI is digital so it's a matter of whether the player actually supports digital video output or not.

If you cannot find a DVD player with VGA output, you should look for one with SCART output. You can easily obtian a SCART->VGA cable from a variety of cable companies and then you'll be in business.

If you need any help with this feel free to email me off list at evan@symphonysound.com and I would be happy to help you.

For scart I believe the Cambridge unit that Audio Advisor sales does that

All you really need is a video card with a composite or S video input. You may even find one with component inputs.
Or,check with a company called Audio Authority and they will probably have a convertor to make a regular DVD player work with a computer monitor.
