OT: Any Technical Suggestions for getting MotoGP.com feed to TV?

[Dana in Philly]

OK, so guys, after watching AMA Pro Primetime a couple of times, and the lousy scheduling of WSB and MotoGP, I'm pretty disgusted with SpeedTV -- it seems that they're in a conspiracy with DMG to destroy the television audience for motorcycle road racing. It makes me wonder, why doesn't some other outfit create a dedicated motorcycle roadracing cable/satellite channel? You know, they create specialized major league baseball coverage packages, and specialized boxing only packages -- where's the specialized moto-roadracing package -- with MotoGP, WSB, AMA, BSB, etc.

Anyway, that's a little off point, because that channel doesn't presently exist.

So I'd think about subscribing to MotoGP.com's feed, but I've got a nice 42" plasma screen TV, so I'd want to watch the feed on that, rather than on a laptop. Any of you wizards doing this (motogp.com to TV), and if so, what equipment are you using?

Best,

Dana in Philly (well, in Portland, OR, today on personal mischief)

Blue Ray Player.

At least the one I just bought (Panasonic BD-80) allows communication between the computer and TV

This is what I do...

DVI to HDMI cable from newegg.com...

Anyone know what the resolution of the feed video is - is it going to look good on a large screen?

It will look Okay, but no better than Speed's coverage. It's not HD.

Just hook the laptop up to the TV. You may need a doohickey to convert from VGA to S-Video or some such BS, but these things are cheap and readily available.
