As far as i know, there is no TV-1 output.  It's this style of machine:

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/58/IMac_G4_sunflower7.png/250px-IMac_G4_sunflower7.png

so it has a built-in monitor, and it has one of those apple-specific 
compact monitor ports that i think needs a custom dongle to connect it 
to anything (i do not have the custom dongle).

I don't think the built-in monitor (1440×900px) would be considered 
connected to TV-1 for a machine like this.
