Hi, I have a macbook mini dvi and I want to connect it to a Beovision 2004 non hd for DVD playback and some video streaming. I need to have both image and sound.

what is the best way to do?

Hi, I'm no expert (not having either a BV5 or a Macmini 😁 ) but have been looking at getting a macmini to connect to a soon to arrive BV7. Seems there are issues with the age of the macmini you have - pre 2009 a DVI-VGA adapter seems to work fine (combined with a coaxial for the audio) post 2009 I think you might have to get a mini-displayport to VGA cable, and then a VGA to Composite converter.
