Fellow Kodi Fans,
This isn't a Kodi specific question, but I figured someone here would probably know.
I'm trying to bring an older desktop box I retired about a year ago out of retirement to use as a Kodi box. It's a Gateway E4300. The specs on Gateway's website list its graphics card as:
ATI Radeon X300SE with 128MB DDR Video Memory and TV Out
All of my TVs are older CRT type TVs so composite video is good enough. I thought since the video card had TV out capabilities an inexpensive adaptor like this would be all I'd need. I just tried connecting it to a couple of TVs and got no output whatsoever. Does anyone know if additional configuration is needed to enable composite video output? I'm running Kodi 15.2 on Arch Linux. Any tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated.
