To use a TV set as a monitor
You can connect a television set or other video device to your computer to use as a
display.
To connect a TV set
1.
Connect the TV set to the S-video port using a standard S-video cable, or a
composite-video adapter with a standard RCA-type video cable.
2.
Optional: connect an audio cable from the computer’s headphone output jack to the
TV audio input. The S-video port doesn’t include audio output.
To activate the TV display
HP TV Now automatically adjusts your computer for using a TV. For example, the
display timeout is disabled to prevent the screen from turning off, and the resolution is
optimized for TV viewing.
•
If a One-Touch button is assigned to HP TV Now, press that button. (The five One-
Touch buttons are located above the keyboard.)
–or–
•
Click Start, All Programs (or Programs), Hewlett-Packard, Notebook, HP TV Now.
To adjust the HP TV Now options, click Start, All Programs (or Programs),
Hewlett-Packard, Notebook, HP TV Now Options.
To return the display to its normal settings, run HP TV Now again. Normal display
settings are also restored if the computer suspends or turns off.
If the image on the TV is bad, the format used for TV output may be incorrect for your
TV. In North America, the normal setting is NTSC. In Europe, Asia, and Africa, the
normal setting is PAL. To change the TV format, connect a TV to the S-video port, open
Control Panel Display, on the Settings tab click Advanced, on the Displays tab click the
TV button, and then set the format on the Format tab.
To play DVD movies on the TV
The movie shows only on the main display. If the movie doesn’t appear on the TV, open
Display in Control Panel, click the Settings tab, then click Advanced and make the TV a
“primary” display.
For more information, see “To play DVD movies” on page 41.
