I’d like to watch some files I usually play on my big screen TV, and I have a question re: the cables.
First, the TV is a Samsung DLP rear-projection HDTV. It has a ton of inputs, including 3 HDMI imputs, 2 component video and 2 s-video inputs.
I would connect either my HP laptop which has an S-video as well as the “regular” video out port (I think its VGA), that you would use to connect to a projector. From what i understand, the video port/VGA is BETTER quality than the s-video.
However, my TV doesn’t doesn’t have the VGA input. So, should I look for a VGA to HDMI or component video converter, or just go with s-video?
My other option is to connect my Imac but on the back of it all I see is a weird jack that has a VGA output sign above it. Being an Apple, you prob. need to buy their own, proprietary, $80 cable or something to connect it.
Advice?
