TVs

I want to save some space in my room and wire my computer to my TV. I know there is a direct cable on most new TVs, but I can't afford a new TV right now. Does anyone know if there is a color cable to monitor cord or wires I can buy to save money?
Thanks.

When the HDTV is Resolution: 1366 x 768 doesn't it mean (720p) and when the HDTV Resolution: 1920 x 1080 doesn't it mean it can go up to (1080p)

Does anyone know how to fix a small crack on the side of the tv set.? The crack is not on the tv picture, so it plays really good, just on the side of the tv. Any kind of glue or liquid that they use.

I have three HD capable TV's in my house. i was wondering if it is possible to get HD channels on all the tvs from my cable provider without paying an extra 25 a month per box. Or can i just buy boxes myself to avoid paying monthly?

from what i can make out they seem to just be bigger.. and lots of manufacturers claim their aerials are suitable for digital as well. Is there a difference?

hey guys!

I have a HD TV that is HD ready (has tuner) and I noticed I already get some network stations (cable TV) that are HD (new HD channels). But to get more HD channels of other stations I need to order them but I heard I get a different set-top box (an HD one) which will replace my current one. I have digital cable and what not. I just want to know why I need a special set-top box I already have the tuner built in? or don't i?

Thanks!

freecycle didn't work. :( I'd rather not have the city of Minneapolis haul it away, but maybe that's what I have to do.

Here's my freecycle posting with details.

Supre-macy 22SF 17" TV, manufactured 1983.

Perfect for the workout room or basement!

I measured diagonally, and had a little trouble. It might be 18" or 19".

We got someone else's 1994 TV that has newer connectors, so we don't
need this one anymore. Full disclosure: the picture is a little dark.

My dad said that you could hook up the hd cables to a regular tv and have a little better quality, is this true?

I'm interested in buying a lcd, but the cheapest one is like 200 bucks so I i'm just wondering if hd is even possible a little bit on a regular tv.

I have a cable TV and Internet service and want to stop my TV service because of the cost. If I use a PC TV tuner, can I get regular TV channels and/or programs?

Be careful, now. It is NOT a TV splitter. It enables both tuners of a dual-tuner receiver to use only one cable from the Dish Pro Plus LNBF. Choose your answers carefully...I am a communications engineer.

I just got a dvd recorder/vcr combo deal today. Now I am not the best when it comes to this stuff though!
It asks for recording mode (ep, lp, sp, etc). Can I put this into any mode I want, or does it have to be the same mode as the dvd-rw I bought? The length of time is extended when this record mode is changed, and the dvd-rw I bought says its sp and 2 hrs. I want to record a 4 hr movie, so can I put it into the mode that shows 4 hrs on the dvd recorder and have it record the whole movie or am I limited to 2 hrs of record time no matter what?
Also, I am recording from my Directv DVR to the dvd recorder. If I turn the volume down on my tv set while I am recording, when I playback the recording will the audio turn down in the recording? And what if I turn my tv off altogether but have the DTV DVR and dvd recorder power on? Will it still record? My cabling goes from the DTV DVR to the dvd recorder and then to the tv.

I have a very good TV, but it is not HDTV at all. I currently am receiving my TV signal through an HD capable antenna. How can I view TV from HD broadcast sources without getting a new TV?

The antenna only has a coaxial output.

I have an older 420 DLP TV that I bought when they just come to the market but now 720 and 1080i are quite bite better. I really don't want to invest more money in a new TV if I can upgrade it to a better resolution. I know that technology is based in a simple chip that make the picture and project it in the screen. But here is the question, Is that upgrade possible??

It is an Olevia LT37HVS. It's native res is 720p(1366 x 768) and all the channels that I get are 480i. It has some kind of input called DTV, and it says that it is trying to scan for channels. There are two RF inputs, one that is labeled ANT which I assume is for Antennaes, and one that is labled DTV which I don't know what goes there. There is a switch on the Philips HD antenna that goes from sattelite to cable, and when I have it on cable, from my main menu on the actual TV on the TV input, I can switch between Cable and Air. That's the comparison that I am doing it with. I tried switching to the DTV input, and it says scan for channels. I looked up a site and it said that I had to have an antenna hooked up for it to work. So, I plugged in the HD antenna into both the ANT and DTV RF inputs, and scanned for channels. Both times I didn't get any channels. So, I always have the antenna set to cable, never to antenna. How do I make this work? What is the DTV input for?

I'm trying to figure out what exactly is missing when they say an HD-LCD is tuner-less. Does this mean you need to plug in the cable companies tuner box (which I have on all my Tv's anyways) or do I actually need ANOTHER component in addition to the cable box in order to get HD programming? Conversly, if the tv has a tuner built-in, do I no longer require the cable box?
