| | How do I change the video output from my laptop Hi Everyone, I was not sure where to post this thread. Here's the thing, I have a HP Pavilion DV6 and I want to display video on a Panasonic TAU T.V. My laptop has both VGA and HDMI video outputs and the TV has an RCA port. I bought an HDMI to RCA cable and Plugged both ends to the right places but, no image is displayed. I have read that i need to change the screen resolution but I don't know what else I require. Thanks for your help. |

| | Is the RCA port the only input for the Panasonic TV? When you go to control panel/display, what options are available, not just screen resolution, but also number of screens? Is the video a high-definition disc or a standard video file? The TV must be compliant for high-definition. |

| | Well there is the port for receiving cable TV. No, it is not for HD. I guess that could be a problem, but the other way was buying a VGA cable and other things which could make things harder. |

| | Your TV (model# ?) might receive 720 horizontal lines through a separate digital tuner and the coaxial cable, if it is HD-ready. But the RCA ports are limited to 480 lines. That's hardly useable. Despite the screen size, there's no real estate. |

So what I understand is that the cable I bought is useless for watching my desktop activity on the TV. What would be the best way to achieve my goal? Use the VGA port? At the moment I don't plan to buy a HDTV. |
