Abstract
Use of a digital television as a remote display for a computer system is accomplished by capturing video data signals, compressing the captured video data signals, capturing audio output data signals, converting the captured audio output data signals and captured video data signals into broadcast digital television data packets, and transmitting the television data packets as television signals to the digital television.
