Can't help on the connections i'm afraid but does Airplay not work for iPlayer? Got an iPad?

has your tv got a vga port? I use that with a converter deely for the monitor port on the mbp though the hdmi route would be a bit neater so interested if its possible

If it is a new-ish MBP, get a converter from the DisplayPort to HDMI and just plug it in...
Pretty much anything with an i5 or i7 will work just fine. Mine is a Core2Duo so works but has no sound.

If it's a non-unibody MBP:
Also, you will need to run the audio out from the headphone socket to phono inputs on either your amp or TV if it has composite in. So a 3.5mm jack to phono cable will be needed.
Thing is, without knowing the model of your MBP, this is all pointless

Ignore my reply then, as Rachel has the appropriate advice.
