Not to mention multiple tuners, hard drives, 3D, and the forthcoming twin polarised dual channel viewing...
I still remember the disappearing white spot LOL!
I was just looking up the specs on my Tv it is almost 3 years old bought it for my wife when the kid was born
got it for 475.00 us been running strong The Vizio E370VA Review. Is it worth buying? not to get off topic of the op
But waiting for his reply as well but this might help him to see features
Well when I try to "detect monitors" in the control panel, it always says "another display not detected".
A thought though: If I connected a VGA cable with one input into the computer and two outputs to computer monitors, would that work? Both the monitor and TV are 1080p devices.
edit: My TV also has one USB port, so I can update the firmware through that.
so if I want to do this I've got to figure out how to do it through HDMI, eh? Why can't anything ever just be that easy? lol. Well at any rate it always said "another display not detected" even though there is really only one way to connect a cable: PC to TV... lol. I've tried having the TV on and rebooting the computer to try to get it to start up with TV detection (which it never does even though it is checked).
There have been so many issues with TV's which are supposed to work from computers, but which either fail to do so outright, or fail to display POST data at boot if used as a monitor, or are pernicious about which graphics cards they will play nicely with, that if I were buying one I'd want the salesman to demonstrate it worked!
The thing is VGA works flawlessly. I just don't want to have to move the cable all the time (although I will if I have to.) If I could get a double-ended VGA cable and have that work it would be perfect and I wouldn't need to futz around with this stuff.
I have no idea what that is... never heard the term.
