yeah no shit
their fucking idiots, but they try to sell you hard


I once asked one how hard it would be to build a computer from parts.

He told me that only certified technicians under factory conditions can put one together.

So I showed him a pic of me putting a computer together on a shitty collapsible table in nothing but my boxer shorts, then a pic of it working great afterwards.

What a dickhole.

i do this from time to time with my computer because i like porn better on a 46 inch HDTV then a 21 inch monitor. All you need is a DVI to HDMI connection, then use your Computers speakers, or you can get a splitter that will take your mono into a red/white connection. They don't have the cord at Best Buy (I tried). Frys had the Cord. you may beable to find one online as well, probably for cheaper.

I already know how to stream regular movies from my PC to my TV. I just want to know how to stream 1080p movies that I have
downloaded onto my computer, onto my TV, & retain the quality of a normal Blu-Ray.

Would it just be HDMI from the laptop, to HDMI into the TV? Since that carries audio & video.
Or would I have to change a setting somewhere?

Yeah, I'm positive I'm on the right input though. It's puzzling. :/


it should just be the hdmi since it gives the best quality from laptop to tv. however i dont have a hdmi cable and never tried it yet with mine- i would just assume you hook it up and shouldnt have to change a setting. (except the setting on tv to make sure you on right mode). when you connect the hdmi cables to both laptop/tv does your laptop go blank at all or does nothing happen at all?
