I'm writing this guide after being asked a few times on ways to associate a laptop to a Tv. People want to accomplish this for any reasons. First, it's great for presentations at work, school, or home. It's also suitable for viewing pictures and videos to friends, watching Dvds, and it is now even being used for viewing Blu-ray and other high definition content on the Hdtv.
First, we want to make sure you're getting the most out of your laptop when it comes to displaying it on the Tv.
How To Program Rca Universal Remote
If you have an Hdtv with Hdmi inputs, check if your laptop has an Hdmi output. If it does, you're in luck! Your Hdtv can display from your laptop in Hd resolutions. All you need is an Hdmi cable to associate them. If your Hdtvs Hdmi inputs are used up already. An Hdmi switch would be the best solution for you. We supply switches that can associate up to 5 distinct Hdmi sources to 1 Hdmi input.
If you don't have an Hdmi yield on the laptop, check if it has a Dvi output. Some Asus, and Dell laptops have them. If you do, you can associate your laptop to an Hdtv with an Hdmi to Dvi cable. They are both digital cables so this will furnish the same Hd resolutions as a approved Hdmi cable.
If your laptop doesn't have Hdmi or Dvi out, it should have a Vga output. Connecting with Vga is capable of high resolutions. However, distinct Tvs retain distinct resolutions with Vga. You must check the maximum resolution your Tv model supports with Vga.
Pretty much all laptops come with an S-Video output. It's not going to be as great of a picture, but it will absolutely do the job with an S-Video cable.

After you have associated your chosen cable, boot up your laptop and see if it has detected your Tv. If not, you have to go into your display properties and look for the settings that will enable your Tv to display from your laptop. Where to find the setting will vary depending on your graphics card (just look around). If you are having problem getting your Tv to show a picture, make sure you have updated the display drivers on your laptop. Now you're probably going to want sound from something other than your laptop speakers. So you can pick to yield it to your Tv, or blast it from your home theater audio receiver.
The best way to associate audio to your Tv or receiver is straight through a digital audio cable. Both a digital coaxial cable or Toslink optic audio cable will work great for crisp high quality audio. Just make sure your laptop has either a digital coaxial or an optic audio output. Some laptops use the headphone jack to double as a digital coaxial (S/Pdif) output. If you use this method, your going to need a 3.5mm to Rca adapter with a digital coaxial cable. If your laptop has none of these outputs and you still absolutely want that high quality sound. Don't worry! You can still get an external (Usb) sound card that has digital coaxial out or optic out. I suggest the Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 Sb1090 with Toslink optic audio out.
Another way, which won't want any add-ons, is to use the headphone (3.5mm) jack on your laptop to the Rca (red and white) inputs on your Tv or receiver. To do this, all you need is a 3.5mm to 2 Rca adapter with a 2 Rca audio cable.
I know all of these cables can seem confusing to you. If you're having problem seeing out what each cable looks like or find out more about a cable, check out the Cable Guide at CableTrain.com. All of these cables are available for you on our website as well. I hope you can now successfully associate your laptop to the Tv in the best way possible!

Stereo speakers are built to last. Every time you turn them on they are submitted to abuse and punishment, even more so depending on the type of music you listen to. For example, music with heavy bass shakes everything in your home. imagine what is going on in the speaker cone.
Even the best, ability stereo speakers are bound to crackle from all of this abuse over time. When that happens, you may have the occasion to save yourself some money by repairing those broken speakers instead of buying new ones.
How To Program Rca Universal Remote
It all starts with seeing the problem causing the sound problems. It can be an enclosure damaged or maybe it blew out from an electrical or thermal fuse. Problems with the voice coil are a base problem, sometimes the crossover network is faulty and even problems as easy as a solder association can be the cause of your problems. anything your speaker issue maybe, it can be fixed. Here is a breakdown of how you can repair a speaker that is blown out.
The first thing you need to do is shape out which speaker is giving you problems. You can indeed do this by playing colse to with the stereo's equalizer. Alter the equilibrium and the fader to cut off the speaker causing the distortion in sound or if there is no sound at all. Be sure not to have the volume blasting or you run the risk of blowing out a good speaker.
Once you've figured out which speaker is the bad one, you now need to take it apart. Try to do this step considered because you don't want to cause supplementary damage to a part which is working fine. remove the faceplate of the speaker and then moderately loosen the seams of the speaker's fabric without tearing it.
Now that the speaker cone is visible, you can begin repairing it. Have some tape or glue handy since this is what you will primarily be using if the cone of the speaker is punctured or torn. You'll want to make sure the hole or tear is thoroughly covered before thoughprovoking on to the next step.
Test the voice coil to see if it is damaged in any way such as if it melted at some point for example. If there is even the tiniest of gaps in the coil, no sound will flow from the speaker or it will sound highly distorted, depending on the size. If you see that the voice coil is indeed melted, then just replace the speaker entirely.
If you're going to need any transfer parts, now is the time to order them. They can either be found directly from the manufacturer but they can be costly or from stereo specialties shops. An often overlooked fact is to know the part amount or numbers of the pieces you are seeing for. They are commonly settled on the inside of the speaker or backside of the cone. Doing so will make your life an awful lot easier.
Now that you have all parts you need to properly fix the speaker, take a look at how the damaged part is attached to the speaker. Once you remove the broken piece, you are going to need to setup the new one the same way.
Now that you are all completed putting the speaker back to together, the only thing left to do is test to see if all your hard work paid off. Hook it back up to the stereo and test it at a low volume moderately turning the volume up to see if it can handle. If the speaker is still not working and you feel like did everything correctly, take it to a expert and let them fix it from there.

You've all heard it, that dreaded 60Hz hum through the speakers of a home theater or house audio system. Hopefully you heard it at a friend's house and not your own. It can drive you fully nuts. You may have even tried, unsuccessfully, to fix the small noise problem. That can make you even more crazy. What causes that horrendous noise through your speakers?
More often than not humming through your speakers is caused by a grounding problem. There are three main ground problems that cause problems in an audio / video system. These are ground loops, improper grounding and lack of a ground altogether. The other possible culprits that can cause noise are bad cables, a faulty piece of equipment or electrical noise from a lighting dimmer or electric motor. There are steps you can take to troubleshoot the noise and eliminate it from you theater.
How To Program Rca Universal Remote
The first step is find out where it is coming from. Disconnect your source and display equipment from your receiver or surround sound processor. If the noise stops, associate them back to the receiver or processor on at a time until the noise returns. When the hum comes back, you found where the noise is entering your system. Note that if you are connecting remote equipment, such as running the signal from your theater room Dvd player to the Tv in the bedroom, your chances to pick up noise growth dramatically. With such long runs, noise can be induced into the long cable runs from adjacent electrical wiring. It is also easy to create a ground loop, because the equipment is plugged into two different, widely separated outlets, on different electrical circuits.

If the noise is caused by a cable box, the noise is likely caused by the cable Tv ground. To test this theory, disconnect the incoming cable Tv feed to the rear of the cable box or Tv while they are still linked to the rest of the system. If the noise is eliminated by disconnecting the Tv cable, the question is the cable Tv ground. You can electrically decouple the cable Tv feed from your system with a ground breaking transformer. These are ready from many sources. Be advised that many newer, digital cable Tv systems wish any gismo in the signal chain to pass a full 1,000 Mhz. Some of the older ground break transformers will not do this. Be sure to check the specifications of whatever gismo you are purchasing to verify it will pass the digital cable Tv signal.
If the noise is from your projector, Tv, or monitor, it is most likely caused because the video display gismo is plugged into a different outlet than the other a/v equipment. It could be on a different circuit as well. These circuits may have two different ground potentials. That is, the resistance to ground is different on each circuit. A incompatibility in resistance to ground from one ground point to other can cause the dreaded ground loop. If you get a ground loop, current flows in the middle of the two components. If the current flows through the components internal audio signal ground, you will get a hum.
You can use an isolation transformer, similar to the type used for cable Tv ground problems, to eliminate the electrical relationship from one component to the other. These transformers are inserted in line with the audio signal relationship in the middle of the two components. If there is no audio relationship in the middle of the components, the question may be current flowing through the video portion. In this case, a video isolation transformer should be used to eliminate the ground loop.
Sometimes power conditioners will stop noise problems by placing equipment on different, electrically isolated outlets. This is done using isolation transformers. Sometimes this is ineffective however, due to the differences in internal building of different power conditioning equipment. Some security regulations, such as Ul 1950, specify that an isolation transformer is only allowed to isolate the hot and neutral wires; the grounding wire must be passed straight through. If this is the case, the ground loop question may still exist because many transportation circuits are linked to the grounding conductor and not the neutral. In this case, the isolation transformer, or any power conditioner or Ups with an isolation transformer will have unquestionably no affect on the grounding problem.
The noise may be generated externally, from a dimmer or refrigerator compressor for example, and coming in through the main power input on the audio video equipment. In this case, a high ability power conditioner may be productive in reducing or eliminating the noise problem. You may also find that one of the signal interconnecting cables in your system is faulty. This can also cause noise problems. Check for this by swapping the cables with one that you know to be good.
You can solve most noise problems in your home theater or multi room audio/video system by taking the systematic, step-by-step approach. Work your way up the signal chain, eliminating each piece of equipment as you go. If you have nothing linked to your speakers except the speaker wiring, and they still hum, the question is noise induced into the speaker wiring from adjacent power cables. Other than that case, most problems are caused by ground problems, which you can find, and solve, if you take it one step at a time.

You're finding the marvel that is High Definition Tv, in a hundred separate monitors at your local sell outlet. It can be very exciting, but confusing. So, you pick out your baby, buy it, and take it home. Following a storm of unwrapping, and the plugging in of cables, you have...a photograph that doesn't even come close to what you saw in the store. Annoyed, you ultimately settle to read the manual (something most citizen would never think to do), see a reference to a type of High Definition association called Hdmi (High-Definition Multimedia Interface), and perceive that's exactly what you need to go out and get. So back to your local Retailer you go, only to be confronted with Dvd players that Upscale, Hd-Dvd Players, Blu-Ray Players, Video Game Consoles and dozens of other products that use this same new Interface. Just when you conception you understood your new Hdtv, you are thwarted by the numerous choices available.
Older Analog style video connections did not offer nearly the association appropriate of Hdmi, which allows a single cable association to pass both Audio and Video signals; this is the new High Definition age association standard. If your Tv supports Full Hd, make sure you have an Hdmi cable to take benefit of this. Rather than a multitude of cords and a maze of cables snaked behind your Tv and entertainment system, Hdmi allows the best of both worlds by combining audio and visual into one single digital cable.

Hdtv Resolutions:
- 480i (480 interlaced lines of resolution) Also known as what you've watched on general Tv for years
- 480p (480 Progressive lines of resolution) Known as Sdtv, progressively scanning images from a Dvd player creates a nicer, smoother image on your Sdtv/Hdtv
- 720p (720 Progressive lines of Resolution) This is your first step into Hdtv. Allowing for 720 lines of resolution, nearly twice that of 480p, provides a much smoother image on a High Definition Tv
- 1080i (1080 interlaced lines of Resolution) Currently the many resolution provided by Satellite and Cable operators, gift exceptional quality photograph on a television capable of displaying 1080i
- 1080p (1080 Progressive lines of Resolution) Also known as Full Hd, 1080p is currently "It" in the market place in terms of best quality picture.
Now that you understand the progression of Hdtv Resolutions, let's form out what all those numbers verily mean on that new Hdtv you've just purchased.
When you are choosing the cables to associate your Hdmi equipped devices, these are some elements to keep in mind.
As you will be spending a good bit on the cable, make sure you get one which is hereafter proofed - even though your Tv programs aren't broadcast in 1080p, the latest Dvd and game consoles are, so get a cable that is 1080p certified. To ensure that it transmits video as well as lossless audio, make sure the cable is Hdmi 1.3. Many cables longer than 10 feet begin to lose quality, so make sure that the cable is certified for 1080p. Lastly, pay concentration to how strained the cable is, because most versions don't have any sort of locking device, and it can wiggle loose.
That's it. Now it is time to purchase a Hdmi cable, so that you may enjoy that vibrant video and crisp audio that you fell in love with at the store!
