How would I connect my computer to my TV for movies?

How watch movies off of comuter on my t.v.?

  • how do i connect my tv to my computer with an HDMI cord so i can watch movies on my t.v. and see it on my computer at the same time???

  • Answer:

    If both your computer and your TV have HDMI ports, you can get an HDMI cable, connect the two, then go to the TV/Video (or Source, or Input, depending on the TV) option on your TV and select the HDMI input. Some newer TVs have more than one, so you may have to cycle through the different input settings until you find it. Once you do, you will see everything that is displayed on your computer screen on your TV(as well as sound). [if your computer doesn't have an HDMI port, there are various adapters at Radio Shack that you might be able to find, to allow it to export the movies to your TV, but you might lose the HD quality)

Do u have a smart tv. If so you can watch them straight off a USB stick. Basically indeed a media player and you load all your movies or downloads onto it.

You need to tell us what external monitor port is available on your laptop and what ports are available on your TV. For an HDMI to HDMI port, a simple HDMI to HDMI cable will do. http://www.amazon.com/High-Speed-HDMI-Cable-feet/dp/B001CHM3VO/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1328423683&sr=8-10 For a computer's VGA to TV's HDMI port connection, a VGA to HDMI converter and an audio cable is required: http://www.amazon.com/DekCell-VGA-Audio-HDMI-Converter/dp/B002N8O10W/ref=sr_1_11?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1326033189&sr=1-11 http://www.amazon.com/RiteAV-3-5mm-Stereo-Male-Cable/dp/B000V0G2C4/ref=pd_cp_e_1_img For a computer's VGA to TV's RCA port connection, a VGA to RCA converter and an audio cable is required: http://www.amazon.com/Converter-Adapter-AGPtek-Reader-Silver/dp/B004BJKQQE/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1321875845&sr=8-8 http://www.amazon.com/RiteAV-3-5mm-Stereo-Male-Cable/dp/B000V0G2C4/ref=pd_cp_e_1_img
