Connecting Your Computer to Your TV

[RandomRyan]

Hey.

I have a question, I want to connect my computer to my TV, but I only have one HDMI port on my monitor. Can I get a hdmi spliter and it would act like two ports?
or am I confused? :S

Will that still work?

Heres the spliter:

First time I've ever seen an HDMI splitter.
Check if your computer has a VGA out and if your TV has a VGA (or PC) in.

Why don't you just get a VGA Cable or DVI and connect it to your TV ?

I don't exactly understand. Are we just talking about using his TV as a screen?
Imagine your PC is an xbox, it's the same process?

HMDI OUT from your PC
HDMI IN to your TV?

Or is there something else I'm missing?
Or does your tv not have a hdmi port?

More details pl0x

yeah i think he's trying to use both his monitor and his tv.
does your hypothetical xbox have 2 HDMI outs? because his doesn't.

I have a VGA In my monitor, I only have a extra HDMI input on my TV.

VGA cable then a splinter, then hdmi cable?

HDMI to DVI Digital Video Cable

I don't have a VGA IMput

 

[Jeffrey]

Are you trying to show whatever it is on your monitor AND TV?

I wouldn't bother buying an HDMI splitter for 68$+ - Just buy a new TV.

Personally, I do that when I am playing games on my laptop so I play shit with my keyboard on lappy but the screen is a huge 90"TV and thats what is amazing thing about it

Because a new $300 tv is better than a $68 hdmi splitter
