As many of you know, I am a great fan of Hulu.   Recently I went searching to find out how to watch Hulu without having to buy NETGEAR Digital Entertainer Live (Black) and Paying a monthly service.  So Here’s is what you need to watch it on your TV.

What you will need:

Video
S-Video Cables — If you plan to use S-video in then this is what you will need.  The good thing about this is most Laptops have S-Video Out.   Although this isn’t always the case this is how I watch Hulu on TV.

VGA to S-Video — Some laptops only have VGA you will be able to tell by the look of the connection but if you have this tool you can convert any VGA connection to S-video easily.

Philips 3-Way AV Selector For $9.88 –This is the cheap way for those who can only connect coaxial cable inputs.   This is what you will need to use on Older TV’s.

Audio

2 RCA Male / 3.5mm Stereo Male, 25 ft — This is for the head phone jack that you will have on your laptop pipe your audio from you laptop to the TV screen. Depending on the length of the S-Video cable will also determine the Length of the the Audio cable. So you will need to look around for a 25 foot S-video cable just so you have the room.

In Conclusion

This is one way to connect mulitple video outlets like VCR or HD Over the air converters.  So it isn’t a bad way to go to make this happen.   I did buy each of these to be able to watch shows on my TV through the internet.   Now you can too.  If you need internet for you laptop, I have been using the [intlink id=”3059″ type=”post”]Cricket Broadband A600[/intlink] to stream Hulu to my TV.   This is so nice with Hulu Desktop.  As long as you put the quality of the stream to Low and not Medium the modem seems to be able to keep up. Now if you click on the quality you will be able to select Low, Medium or High Quality this is how you can stream over lower bandwidth limitations.

Now all this shouldn’t cost you more than $30 without shipping and if you look around your local Radio Shack or Walmart you will be able find all you need there. This is how I did it myself. Now I can watch want I want on my 30 Inch Big Screen. I just put my Laptop on the Coffee Table and enjoy the shows.

If your looking to upgrade or buy a laptop, I would suggest looking into the Amazon Laptop Store. This is for those who would like to be able to do this in the future.   Although you don’t have to buy from Amazon it is just an Idea or you could buy Hulu. Recently I went searching to find out how to watch Hulu without having to buy NETGEAR Digital Entertainer Live (Black)and paying for a monthly services to watch Hulu on your TV. I prefer using my Roku to watch movies and shows. It is cheaper than the Vodu. Although you don’t get Hulu, you can watch movies and shows from Netflix and Amazon Video on Demand!
