Remember, when you move to digital, your sound will be preserved essentially forever. There are a lot of good reasons to copy/digitize or convert your LPs to CDs while you still can. Records wear out, and there is no better way to preserve your music than to convert your vinyl collection to CD. Fortunately the process has become both easy and inexpensive.<br /><br />Here's what you need to convert records to CDs and MP3s:<br /><ul><br /><li>PC computer running Windows 2000, XP, Vista or 7</li><li>Sound card or USB audio device</li><li>Turntable with a built in preamp, a receiver, or an external phono preamp</li><li>Proper cables</li><li>Conversion software</li><li>CD burner (standard in most PCs and laptops)</li><li>iPod & iTunes on your computer or other MP3 player</li><br /></ul><br />More to follow...<br /><br />___Eiffel19http://www.blogger.com/profile/00534300740109150596noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7537204088968450625.post-42066731397921473572009-09-14T08:59:00.000-07:002009-09-14T09:06:58.386-07:00Guideline: HowTo Setup Slingbox for TV streaming...The Slingbox is a TV streaming device that enables users to remotely view their home's cable, satellite, or personal video recorder (PVR) programming from an Internet-enabled computer with a broadband Internet connection. <br /><br />The Slingbox can redirect one of its inputs to a single computer located on a local network or remotely, when using a broadband Internet connection, anywhere in the world. To avoid copyright infringement, only one user can access the stream from a Slingbox at a time.<br /><br />In this blog posting, I am going to generally discuss the setup of the slingbox hardware and the sling player application.

Also, there was no over- or under-scanning.<br /><br />After I logged on to the laptop, a popup window stated that the system had detected another display and it gave me options for configuring my displays. It allowed me to set the NVIDIA nView display mode to use:<br />1. Only use one display (Single).<br />2. The same on both displays (Clone).<br />3. Configured independently from each other (DualView).<br /><br />I applied option three. My laptop display is set as primary and the Samsung display defaults as secondary. See Figure 1 below.

However, I am going to take a look at two of the more popular ones:<br /><br />1. HDMI/DVI Connection.<br />2. VGA Connection.<br /><br />Before proceeding with the discussion of these two approaches, I want to state the following:<br />1. That the graphics card on your laptop/PC has the lastest driver installed. [If not, use the Device Manager in the Windows Control Panel to access the card and update its device driver].<br />2. That it is assumed that both your laptop/PC and LCD TV are powered off, before you start connecting cables.<br /><br /><strong>HDMI/DVI Cable Connection</strong><br />Today, HDMI ports are very common on LCD TVs, but less common on your Laptop/PC up until recently. Therefore, many people use a HDMI/DVI connection between their laptop/PC and their LCD TV. That is, a HDMI/DVI cable (see image below), is used to connect to a HDMI port on the TV end and to a DVI Port on the laptop/PC side.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhktFkLfnx2gRadZZ1MjIMHUNOXAz3sVWf-xZIi_ki96Aqbc-DieVx_FbOBMh48I4VdsTJ6lGuzq-YqhBM9O9JFP6VCxEW3HFXuDFNM1FNGe0bdKUtg6s-xFwtcDWD76GVn7b13S6GJxvx_/s1600-h/HDMIDVICable.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 119px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 119px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5375085214612955730" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhktFkLfnx2gRadZZ1MjIMHUNOXAz3sVWf-xZIi_ki96Aqbc-DieVx_FbOBMh48I4VdsTJ6lGuzq-YqhBM9O9JFP6VCxEW3HFXuDFNM1FNGe0bdKUtg6s-xFwtcDWD76GVn7b13S6GJxvx_/s400/HDMIDVICable.jpg" /></a><br /><br />Since a HDMI/Cable only carries a video signal, we will also need a 3.5mm mini-stereo-to-RCA cable (as shown below).<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOxQy-dtUQa51DttPEGEcqpYX_pg4vShCtReXdKiPtuAt9uQHyj0IL230rG01kb5YvS2giuAMszFlCRyy4P8eJrjM-88BSCyBgbuiqNfoDu-g-3u-B_hw3XX8P46vImI3HhKIf6lrwaf6R/s1600-h/MiniStereoRCACable.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 130px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 123px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5375090100258368050" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOxQy-dtUQa51DttPEGEcqpYX_pg4vShCtReXdKiPtuAt9uQHyj0IL230rG01kb5YvS2giuAMszFlCRyy4P8eJrjM-88BSCyBgbuiqNfoDu-g-3u-B_hw3XX8P46vImI3HhKIf6lrwaf6R/s400/MiniStereoRCACable.jpg" /></a><br /><br />Moving on...<br /><br />First, let's take a look at the connection panel of a typical LCD TV. The schematic below will be somewhat similiar to the one for your LCD TV [Click on the image to enlarge]. Nowadays, a LCD TV comes with the cable connections described in the previous section (i.e. HDMI, S-Video, VGA, RCA, etc.).<br /><br />For the purposes of describing the HDMI/DVI Connection setup, we are interested in the HDMI2 port (labelled # 4).<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF0IxRuM0SqP0eI-KPntbg4c1EM_rg2Q83yUJEVUMQ5jbFQCBMX9pOmOiwqGMr7FZ9e9v5AJ7MRI4rI90kYnEFR5MZeTvghU67xrnh9__Qd7K0_qM2McT9_iP70CiTJRH3pnx3_2Ejo4Z_/s1600-h/TVRearPanel.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 204px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5375079712829488754" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF0IxRuM0SqP0eI-KPntbg4c1EM_rg2Q83yUJEVUMQ5jbFQCBMX9pOmOiwqGMr7FZ9e9v5AJ7MRI4rI90kYnEFR5MZeTvghU67xrnh9__Qd7K0_qM2McT9_iP70CiTJRH3pnx3_2Ejo4Z_/s400/TVRearPanel.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><strong>Step 1:</strong> Connect the HDMI/DVI cable between the HDMI IN 2 port on the TV and the DVI output port on your computer.<br /><strong>Step 2:</strong> Connect the 3.5 mm Stereo mini-plug/2RCA Cable between the DVI IN(HDMI2) [R-AUDIO-L] port on the TV and the Audio Out jack of the on your Laptop/PC.<br /><br /><strong>Note:</strong> This is <em><strong>not</strong></em> an option if your laptop/PC does not have a DVI output port.<br /><br />Look at the schematic below [Click on the image to enlarge]:<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2URt4LtWNUZmoQn0EMRR7wNelVPSnZkkB-K7Eweqv0op1YkODCYYZt6zdv5dSHjn-Do4SPd1jGSJKtrt-ifpaSNcVzl3kkWU5cf4YMzWxY6YY88UzgXz2onNu0a_VCGZbzqeNsdh__QrX/s1600-h/HDMICableConnectPC.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 298px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5375086139801321810" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2URt4LtWNUZmoQn0EMRR7wNelVPSnZkkB-K7Eweqv0op1YkODCYYZt6zdv5dSHjn-Do4SPd1jGSJKtrt-ifpaSNcVzl3kkWU5cf4YMzWxY6YY88UzgXz2onNu0a_VCGZbzqeNsdh__QrX/s400/HDMICableConnectPC.jpg" /></a><br /><br />Fairly simple to connect, eh? However, there some display settings (laptop/PC and LCD TV), that we need to cover in order for this to work properly. This discussion is at the end of this post below.<br /><br /><strong>VGA Cable Connection</strong><br />All laptops/PCs come with a VGA connection and so do the LCD TVs. For the purposes of hooking up the laptop/PC to the TV, we will need a D Sub cable that has <em>male</em> VGA connectors at both ends (as shown below).<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4j_oUo_ic0osUhYzdcohurXo2n3PmP3iwb5dNnxv45Hn3acMmdWVZLHPD39UZT9OsltQ6UAtub5VkVw5QTnWqVImrkvBCVr6BAwEtSpB8xhCIcxIRMTlyQxgLSEx6qdoYYgKRV0tVF-vR/s1600-h/DSubCable.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 150px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 113px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5375091584474466386" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4j_oUo_ic0osUhYzdcohurXo2n3PmP3iwb5dNnxv45Hn3acMmdWVZLHPD39UZT9OsltQ6UAtub5VkVw5QTnWqVImrkvBCVr6BAwEtSpB8xhCIcxIRMTlyQxgLSEx6qdoYYgKRV0tVF-vR/s400/DSubCable.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><strong>Step 1:</strong> Connect a D-Sub Cable between PC IN [VGA] connector on the TV and the VGA output port on your laptop/PC.<br /><strong>Step 2:</strong> Connect a mini Audio Cable between the PC IN [AUDIO] jack on the TV and the Audio Out jack on your laptop/PC.<br /><br />Look at the schematic below:<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg60qqOL8Xzz2vuzZjnZ1o5Mn9sJUIWenH0FeaHyHszO4Ri_o7Mw_3MBnyXp_ZdGsRUUchcrsdYrW4ffLFP-3FiLiNKEpAoJEwXaC86GO1h58ItNy5vd6hqCtDDc3Uq2D9WVZ-g5tH6xvLw/s1600-h/DSubCableConnectPC.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 277px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5375094517306402850" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg60qqOL8Xzz2vuzZjnZ1o5Mn9sJUIWenH0FeaHyHszO4Ri_o7Mw_3MBnyXp_ZdGsRUUchcrsdYrW4ffLFP-3FiLiNKEpAoJEwXaC86GO1h58ItNy5vd6hqCtDDc3Uq2D9WVZ-g5tH6xvLw/s400/DSubCableConnectPC.jpg" /></a><br /><br />Again, fairly straight-forward. Now, in the subsection below, we will discuss what laptop/PC and TV settings need adjustment or modification, so we can complete the connection setup.<br /><br /><strong>Laptop/PC and LCD TV Settings</strong><br />Regardless of the type of cables you use to physically connect your laptop/PC to your LCD TV, there are some settings on both the laptop/PC and LCD TV ends that are required for this connection to work properly. Due to the variety of laptops/PCs and LCD TVs, the setting adjustments will vary slightly. However, I am going to give a general description of these settings.<br /><br />First, turn on your LCD TV and then power up the laptop/PC. The laptop/PC should come up in the usual way with the Windows Desktop displayed. However, the LCD TV may have a blank screen or is tuned to one of your regular TV channels.<br /><br />We must first change the source input for the LCD TV by using the <strong>TV INPUT</strong> button on your TV remote or the button on the actual TV itself. By scrolling down through the options, select the input option as follows:<br /><br /><ul><li>For the HDMI/DVI connection, choose HDMI2. </li><li>For the VGA connection, choose PC (possibly listed as VGA). </li></ul><br />After making this switch, the Windows Desktop may or may not be displayed on your LCD TV. Don't worry if it is not displayed at this stage, as we have to make further display setting adjustments on the laptop/PC.<br /><br />Typically, most laptops/PCs have one of the following types of graphics cards:<br /><ul><li>Nvidia Graphics Card. </li><li>ATI Graphics Card. </li><li>Intel Graphics Card.</li></ul><br /><br />Anyways, we need to bring up the Control Panel interface*, for the particular graphics card installed in the laptop/PC and make the following adjustments:<br />1. Setup for multiple displays.<br />2. Resolution and Refresh Rate.<br /><br />*Note: In Windows XP/Vista, the Control panel can be brought up by doing a right-click of the mouse button on the Desktop area and choosing the Control Panel from the menu listings.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP7TAI_x13Ybuqnyd6uXNGar4xiytQkqkOlKlFi0ddedx0xC1WISrpcmg0wVN1Vpz6CIPdmJN3dKbFzqQoC2140kwzBwMLR-8gAiam4zN-nD2iBTNAMk6PTeE4VmSU3Y1QeIU32JF2grIP/s1600-h/LPCTV_shot_3.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 236px; height: 239px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP7TAI_x13Ybuqnyd6uXNGar4xiytQkqkOlKlFi0ddedx0xC1WISrpcmg0wVN1Vpz6CIPdmJN3dKbFzqQoC2140kwzBwMLR-8gAiam4zN-nD2iBTNAMk6PTeE4VmSU3Y1QeIU32JF2grIP/s400/LPCTV_shot_3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5376587573576843122" /></a><br /><div align="center"><br /><strong>Figure 1: NVIDIA Control Panel Selection</strong><br /></div><br />Please note at this stage, your laptop/PC may have already automatically detected and adjusted the resolution for the new LCD TV display. Regardless, the laptop/PC-to-TV connection may have resulted in <em>over-scanning</em> (where the Windows screen goes beyond the TV screen) or <em>under-scanning</em> (where the Windows screen is much smaller that the TV screen). There are setting options in the Control Panel that will allow you to compensate for over- or under-scanning.<br /><br />Next, we want to setup how we use the two displays (laptop/PC and the LCD TV). Typically, we use one of the following:<br />1. Clone (this option mirrors your Windows desktop on the LCD TV display). It is a good option when you are using your TV as a display for presentations.<br />2. DualView (this option extends your Windows Desktop desktop display area to the newly connected TV). It is a good option to use for playing DVDs, or watching online TV, as you can still you use your laptop/PC for other computer tasks and at the same time, your Media Player can be running on the TV display.<br /><br />Again, there are setting options in the Control Panel for this setup.<br /><br /><br />The Refresh Rate should be set to 60 Hertz. At this time, a rate greater than 60 Hz may cause damage to your LCD TV screen. However, I am aware that some of the new LCD TVs coming on the market now, can accommodate refresh rates up to 120 Hertz.<br /><br />Next, the resolution on your LCD TV maybe out of whack and that the TV display is not that clear or has a view that is not nice for the eyes. If this is the case, you will need to do some resolution adjustments (also, an option in the Control Panel).<br /><br /><strong>Disclaimer:</strong> Some further minor adjustments maybe be required for your specific laptop/PC-to-TV setup, but this is only a general guide. You should consult your LCD TV manual and graphics card manual for further tweaking of the settings.<br /><br />At this point, you should have an acceptable display on your LCD TV. If not, then unfortuantely, you will have to do some troubleshooting. I don't have any specific troubleshooting tips right now, but as I come across some I will add them to the <em>Troubleshooting Tips</em> section below.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;color:#000099;"><strong>Troubleshooting Tips</strong></span><br /><br />To be added.<br /><br />Part 3 of this posting covers my actual experience(s) of connecting my laptop to the LCD TV.<br /><br /><a href="http://eiffel19.blogspot.com/2009/08/guideline-howto-connect-laptoppc-to-tv_27.html#links">HowTo Guideline Part 3/3>></a><br /><br /><a href="http://eiffel19.blogspot.com/2009/08/guideline-howto-connect-laptoppc-to-tv.html#links">Previous>></a><br /><br />___Eiffel19http://www.blogger.com/profile/00534300740109150596noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7537204088968450625.post-75065211839390626872009-08-25T11:44:00.000-07:002009-09-01T17:21:24.303-07:00Guideline: HowTo Connect Laptop/PC to LCD TV (Part 1/3)...<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5CtmDAskrP4NK-oRJI0smQVv_mHbH73VvRPtwJLVsCXBjFEVQ9CiQlr5-bGxMc93g2akPvIebmyx_jbmY2XLRc2fibw-TZrOFRLeTJlUedy4nThLC06Emz9JMTTKO2o42SJQZrdmdzf6u/s1600-h/LCDTVLaptop.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 187px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5374319805197415218" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5CtmDAskrP4NK-oRJI0smQVv_mHbH73VvRPtwJLVsCXBjFEVQ9CiQlr5-bGxMc93g2akPvIebmyx_jbmY2XLRc2fibw-TZrOFRLeTJlUedy4nThLC06Emz9JMTTKO2o42SJQZrdmdzf6u/s400/LCDTVLaptop.jpg" /></a><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"><strong><span style="color:#000099;">Overview</span></strong> </span><br />There are numerous benefits and reasons why you would want to connect your laptop/PC to your LCD TV. You can use your favorite music program to play your favorite tunes, show all of your digital photos or videos to your family, and even show a PowerPoint presentation to coworkers. Combining the laptop/PC with your LCD TV allows possibilities for the easy chair, that were once limited to the office chair.<br /><br />In the following posts, I provide some information on connecting a laptop/PC to LCD TV. The information provided is not new and is available at many other sites. However, in addition to discussing some of the guidelines to performing the task of a laptop/PC to TV <em>hookup</em>, I finish the discussion with my experience of hooking up my laptop to a LCD TV.<br /><br />There are three primary steps to performing the task at hand:<br />1. Identifying the available connections on both the laptop/PC and the TV.<br />2. Choosing a compatible connection and performing the actual physical connection.<br />3. Performing modifications to the Display setting on the laptop/PC and LCD TV, that will allowed what's on the computer to be viewed on the TV.<br /><br />First, let's take a look at some background information in cable connections...<br /><br /><strong>Cable Connection Methods to connect a laptop or PC to your LCD TV</strong><br /><br />The following is a list of the different types of cables/connections you will have to choose from with picture quality ranging from highest to lowest:<br /><br />1. <strong>HDMI</strong> – "High Definition Multimedia Interface" or HDMI is the highest quality connection now. All HDTVs will have this connection though chances are your laptop or computer may not. If you do happen to have an HDMI connection on your computer then by all means, use this connection. Using HDMI will give you the best quality by far. Many of the newer computers have HDMI ports. If your PC/Laptop doesn't have one, you can get a HDMI-to-DVI cable to connect it to your LCD TV. HDMI is compatible with DVI.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXXYCkjxJDmxF_X0aPIrQHwjNg3enp7kBc4Otgfd2t57Tng-t5oFyJZIXFmAQJo27a35TOuboHlIn-VazJ2wCyBKGHaiNbmqYUd9WkO1t42DYcZ4Uvx_NSkOQxiYpbrjh99Ex1dIVy91QF/s1600-h/HDMIPortConnect.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 305px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 113px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5374884442759074114" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXXYCkjxJDmxF_X0aPIrQHwjNg3enp7kBc4Otgfd2t57Tng-t5oFyJZIXFmAQJo27a35TOuboHlIn-VazJ2wCyBKGHaiNbmqYUd9WkO1t42DYcZ4Uvx_NSkOQxiYpbrjh99Ex1dIVy91QF/s320/HDMIPortConnect.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><br />2. <strong>DVI</strong> stands for "Digital Video Interface" and has pretty much been the standard for connecting computer monitors since about 2003. Your computer will most likely have this connection. HDTVs should also have this connection. If you wish to use audio with a DVI connection you must use a seperate audio cable. The digital signal will give a higher quality picture than either S-Video or VGA. Of course, your computer will need to have a DVI connection and your TV will need to be an HDTV.<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYbzbV3S0SAMhwnRNQafDOvG7hdFowFKFFvjYmGCE1m_6U8pZC9_rSs0Cr-gI61KtdswTCbU7ir2hVFc0g9XG7hHRnlGCIwbGj80XRhJoPQ4Kmx-_iesSgtHf3fUD2gvrDramz-Fss8hs_/s1600-h/DVIPortConnect.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 288px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 108px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5374339740751512162" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYbzbV3S0SAMhwnRNQafDOvG7hdFowFKFFvjYmGCE1m_6U8pZC9_rSs0Cr-gI61KtdswTCbU7ir2hVFc0g9XG7hHRnlGCIwbGj80XRhJoPQ4Kmx-_iesSgtHf3fUD2gvrDramz-Fss8hs_/s320/DVIPortConnect.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><br />3. <strong>VGA</strong> or "Video Graphics Array" connections are the most common video connections found on laptops and PC’s. HDTVs may have a VGA connection which means you simply need to connect the cable between your computer and television. However, older televisions will not have a VGA connection and will require a PC to television converter. There are USB converters that allow you to use this method. Just like DVI, VGA does not carry an audio signal. It gives much better quality than S-Video. You usually won’t find a VGA port on regular TV’s though, so this option is if you have an HDTV.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmN2zXiIpXufKgCyh96FDSRpv1IrMZW9QWno2XH8I6jOiJqvLEfCbstNPUrqRETjIY8MqeXF7LVVTZ9EtuysmLCmw-Z9TcrxVTwZJvNNieDt-evHFY-wctrqRdLNl8XPj3ITu-PpyE9HHb/s1600-h/VGAPortConnect.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5374343956247984258" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmN2zXiIpXufKgCyh96FDSRpv1IrMZW9QWno2XH8I6jOiJqvLEfCbstNPUrqRETjIY8MqeXF7LVVTZ9EtuysmLCmw-Z9TcrxVTwZJvNNieDt-evHFY-wctrqRdLNl8XPj3ITu-PpyE9HHb/s320/VGAPortConnect.jpg" /></a><br /><br />4. <strong>S-Video</strong> or "Super Video" has been around for quite some time now. Some laptops and computer graphics cards will have a S-Video connection. Most televisions will also have a S-Video connection. This isn’t the best quality connection but its also not the lowest quality. S-video has the same audio limitation as the above DVI and VGA examples. Remember, there are two types of S-Video cables: 4-pin and 7-pin. Most laptops and PC’s are equipped with a 7-pin port, so if your TV only has a 4-pin S-Video port, then this method will not work.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHV179hKheHJelCNWMfhz4LKNddIPiCehGEJZdoaEqC9bp0I20bZckdviWI6hXhgErBLkMk0ZnYadPtadOTjOgR_ICNgWh_0BttT3INpF-k-tiGmKaWJgnDKqJS9LSqDbDobvSCi4mHY00/s1600-h/SVidPortConnect.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 312px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 132px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5375076469535796130" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHV179hKheHJelCNWMfhz4LKNddIPiCehGEJZdoaEqC9bp0I20bZckdviWI6hXhgErBLkMk0ZnYadPtadOTjOgR_ICNgWh_0BttT3INpF-k-tiGmKaWJgnDKqJS9LSqDbDobvSCi4mHY00/s320/SVidPortConnect.jpg" /></a><br /><br />5. <strong>RCA</strong> - RCA connections also known as Composite connections, are the yellow, red, and white connections that most people will be familiar with. Red is right analog audio, and white is left analog audio. Yellow is composite video. This will be the lowest quality connection to use. If your computer has no RCA connections, you can use an RCA to S-Video cable.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiydj2LQoeBB21qBqAH9AwcPd-Mc8pry83n-uo49Gn_EPFoKTc4hp63s04rR2LlbjZUnK1iQW9aeqnYO_kkaEtHkPb1v3H2A6DHF3TaMBC3eiHBKFFTp68TmVjD0tgfntBApe96okNSauyW/s1600-h/RCAPortConnect.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 140px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5374890638992456882" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiydj2LQoeBB21qBqAH9AwcPd-Mc8pry83n-uo49Gn_EPFoKTc4hp63s04rR2LlbjZUnK1iQW9aeqnYO_kkaEtHkPb1v3H2A6DHF3TaMBC3eiHBKFFTp68TmVjD0tgfntBApe96okNSauyW/s320/RCAPortConnect.jpg" /></a> In part 2 of this guideline, I am going to discuss cable connection hookup based on two of the Cable connection options described above.<br /><br /><a href="http://eiffel19.blogspot.com/2009/08/livenlearn-video-audio-photography.html#links">HowTo Guideline Part 2/3>></a><br /><br />___Eiffel19http://www.blogger.com/profile/00534300740109150596noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7537204088968450625.post-85652139272682509192009-05-07T13:37:00.000-07:002009-05-07T13:39:54.858-07:00Intro to my Blog......more to follow.Eiffel19http://www.blogger.com/profile/00534300740109150596noreply@blogger.com0
