I have noticed this with a lot of the new laptops as I have been thinking of upgrading myself. I think that it only outputs video at the resolution of the file that you play. So if you are showing a kma file it does not require any more power. The problem might come if you play HD DVD or video.
Having said this don't take my word for it. I should do more research first.
Most small TV's that we use don't have HDMI inputs so as Dale said you need a converter from HDMI to either S-video or RCA jacks.
