Description:

How do I connect a TV to my VAIO that uses ATI Radeon 345M?

Solution:

1. Connect an AV cable to the video out of your VAIO and connect the other end to the video in of your TV.
2. Make sure that you have selected the correct channel on your TV.
3. Press FN + F7.
4. Use the Cursor keys to select the appropriate option where option 1 will display on the internal laptop display, option 2 will display on both the internal display and the TV and option 3 will only display on the TV.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 to alter your settings again. If your display is in black and white then check if your TV out is set to the correct TV standard.

No, it just means you'll only get a mono output.

Is that the same way to connect laptop by NVidia card to TV? I tried (backside there is the TV out on my PCG-FR215H), but the "Clone" option greyed out in nView so I can't select and that'd be need to get picture on TV.

It's a similar procedure yes.
