This DT setup is in a school's front office. The principal wants to replace the old TV in the front office with a flat screen.
Is there a COAX to VGA/DVI that would manage this? On the back of the DT modem, there is a set of RCA jacks, both in and out along with an S-Video port.
Any ideas on how to move forward with this wonderful project? :>)
please don't speak to others but speak only on your behalf. There are obviously more ways than one to skin a cat, let's leave the scrutiny for the TS who was the one to ask for options. You should task yourself to offer an option instead of shutting down those who have offered help on this topic.
I think it's pretty clear I agree with the suggestion of getting a tv as easily the best solution. And it seems everyone else agrees as well. I am not going to offer a solution that doesn't make any sense or would be clearly much more difficult to work in someone's particular environment just to make sure the person knows there's more than one way.

Can you tell us what connectors are on the monitor, besides the VGA/DVI? Also, is the audio required to work? Most "monitors" do not have speakers built in. This monitor may have speakers built in. My suggestion would be a standard RF to composite (red, white audio and yellow video) converter. Not clear if you need to run new cable from the receiver to the monitor location or if you will be using existing cable. If you can use the same cable, then RF in to the D12 and Out to TV via coax cable to coax/rf to composite converter is simple and relatively inexpensive. $15 or so. Depends on the capability of the new monitor, etc.
