HDMI >> DVI Cables Would one of these let me connect my laptop to my LCD TV? Also can I play a Bluray from my BR Drive on my lappy and play it thru my TV? HDMI > HDMI but how do i set it up in Vista
yeah, think it depends on yr graphics card though, mines got dvi and hdmi connections so its connected straight to my tv. looks class like. 42inch lcd moniter
surely there should be an option to select which screen you want to use? if theres not i dont kno what else you could do?
I've got my PC connected via DVI to HDMI to my TV. To play Blu Ray etc it depends on your graphics card, then you need a program to use on it such as Power DVD. I'd imagine your Laptop would have something bundled with it with it coming with a Blu Ray Drive. You'd also need soemthing to carry the sound as DVI only carries picture. You could use a standard 3.5mm t0 3.mm jack from the pc but other leads could be used depending on the conection on the laptop/tv or surround sound amp if your using one of them. As for the laptop being on yes you would have it on and have the tv monitor set as a second display either as a clone or you can extend the desktop. Best going clone if it's just for watching movies.
