Modern flat-screen TVs are digital devices. They are the process of converting digital streams in continuous motion. It may seem that connecting a computer to a TV is a very simple task, but in reality it's a little different.
Modern TV models are equipped
with HDMI connectors, which are designed specifically to transmit a signal that carries high-quality image to a computer. In addition to the image, this connector allows you to transmit sound, and this already significantly improves the procedure for working with it, since there is no need to organize several interfaces.
Connecting a computer to the TV is carried out through a certain procedure. First, turn off both devices. Then, using the purchased cable, you should connect them. To do this, use the same connectors, then there will be no problems with the display. After connecting, the TV should be turned on first, be sure to put it in AVI mode, which will allow you to receive a signal from an external source. In this mode, the corresponding HDMI port will be such a source. The first time you connect the computer to the TV, you will definitely need to adjust the image. This is done as follows: right-click on the desktop, and in the menu that appears, you will need to find the settings for the video card. If the TV was not automatically detected in the settings of the video card , then you will need to “Find” it, and then configure its properties. The computer desktop appears on the TV screen.
When the computer’s connection to the TV is completed, in the settings of the video card you can change the size of the desktop, its resolution, as well as make other settings. If the TV is often used as a second monitor, you should set the settings in it, similar to the main ones. Many video cards have the ability to configure the "Mirror" or "Clone" mode, where both displays are configured equally. If you use the Advanced Desktop mode, you can make both monitors work completely independently of each other.
When the process of connecting the computer to the TV is completed, it is advisable to restart the computer, which will allow the changes to take effect.
Before connecting the computer to the TV, you should check whether the device has all the necessary inputs, outputs, as well as adapters. If we are talking about using a
stationary computer, then we need to check it for the presence of an HDMI output on the video card, while this TV must also have this interface. These connectors guarantee the transmission of high-quality sound and image from a computer. An important point is the availability of the necessary cables. If you have a complete set of all the necessary elements, then this will help to easily implement the necessary connection.
