How to Stream Video from Your Laptop to HDTV | Intel

[@lindadowney8975]

Brief and to the point. Great for those of us who are Internet handicapped, Thanks so much!

[@carolwhittenburg5838]

Seemed easy but we couldn't get to work until we watched your video. Thanks for the help!

[@nemera34]

Thank you.. I just did it and it was worked.. everyone is not computer savvy. So I appreciate things like this because they are easy to do and direct to the point. Hope you make more videos.

[@philipvye]

Thanks - top man! Just got a huge LCD TV and have spent a day or so setting up the DVD, Amp, Cable box etc, and your demo for notebook to streaming subscription TV took two minutes - excellent.

[@Corgis4Crispe]

clear concise and easy to follow...thank you so much for your directions...now off to find that lovely little portable HDMI you have....

[@calebrobbins1678]

dave taylor thank you i have been looking for how to do that for at least 2 days thank you so much

[@rando1818]

Great video. We were trying to figure out how to get the video to show on TV. You showed us by accident I think. We are grateful!!! Maybe do a video just showing that simple step. Dragging on laptop to get it to appear on tv. I'm sure others are trying to figure this out too. Thumbs up! keep up the Great work. Rando

[@margaritahenderson514]

This was extremely helpful. Except I can only get the sound coming from the laptop. How can I hear the sound directly from my tv?

[@METAL4K-UK]

On a windows laptop.... Click volume on your laptop and select the right sound device. The name of your TV should be listed. I mean the volume icon on Windows start menu. Next to WiFi icon. Not the volume on the media player.

[@dodesskiy1]

Dominic you need to turn digital audio on. you have to find the option in your video card's menu it lists ports you can turn it on with. In nVidia the heading was gigital audio.

[@pkkontario]

Thanks, Dave. Your teaching style is clear and succinct. I have subscribed to your channel because I'm sure I will be back to draw on more of your expertise! Once again, thanks!

[@VenusInvestigations]

Hi Dave...very helpful..Can you tell me, after the laptop is connected to the TV by way of HDMI, how can I get sound to come through my stereo system? Namely my Bose surround sound stereo?

[@jhcfight]

That isn't streaming, this is simply connecting a second monitor.

[@beverlyvillasenor3919]

Thank you so much for your helpful video. We had set up the HDMI cord but didn't know about the screen resolution and dragging the screen. Thank you so much!

[@missymzloca]

Excellent and simple directions. Thanks!

[@boblong4541]

I am new to HULU, signed up only to find out I cant view it on my TV as I have DISH and it is not supported, but I do have a lap top with a HDMI, so I can hook it up, log into HU:LU and I should be able to view it, is that correct? love the video. Bob

[@luvmusic414]

Just updated Win 7 64-bit to Win 10. Have HP G61-320US Notebook, Toshiba 32" HDMI TV, Wireless Router TP-Link, HDMI cable properly set-up, I believe. Can you show proper settings for everything to work correctly, utilizing my TV as a monitor for my laptop--usually how I work. Need Time settings for battery and plugged in, closing the lid of my laptop, screen resolution, and anything else you deem necessary. I usually keep pc plugged in and use TV as monitor. I am signed up for your mailing "Ask Dave Taylor," but haven't seen this explained. Thank you.

[@aaroninla]

Dave, I have an HDTV, but right before HDMI. Can I hook up my laptop to the TV with a mixed cable?? HDMI (computer) to component video and digital audio (TV)

[@alexpaterson9772]

This isnt streaming..... This is just connecting a freaking input wrong wording on intel's part.

[@hadleyharris1920]

If my HP Pavilion 23 PC doesn't have an HDMI outlet in back, is there an adaptor to connect it to my HDMI TV using the cable I purchased with HDMI on each end?

[@SuperMarksman33]

Way to go Dave,making it simple,thanks.gonna sub.

[@ohmanholyshrimpicles188]

Hi there :) I'm planning to stream an online live stream show from my laptop on the tv however my laptop has a time restriction that cuts off before the end of the live stream that I can't override because I have forgotten the administrative password! If the computer locks me out, will the TV continue the stream or will the tv show a locked out screen as well?

[@ugmodude]

Extremely helpful post. Thanks a million! (and extra points for choosing MST3K for your example) !!

[@Dee-hi5zj]

These are the days of windows TEN.... Can you do a tutorial on the same issue using 10? It's a bit more complex, I believe. Thanks.

[@rishitsrivastava3684]

It's same but it's kinda complicated and you need to use weird menus and keybinds

[@superdan2010]

Can you help me? I have a hdmi to vga cable and followed your instructions to extend to desktop and set then tv to hdmi 1, yet as much as I try.. the TV display keeps saying no video signal. Please could you help me? Thank you

[@deespag]

how do you watch hdtv screen on your laptop

[@AI_01000]

on tv-hdmi out=> hidmi in-laptop

[@dimtodim]

why u want that?

[@GavinVox68]

Great job uploading a video with mono audio....

[@julianmoriarty9877]

Is there a way to play things on the tv without showing what you're doing on the laptop. I want the people seeing the TV only seeing the video and not all the other stuff.

[@mastermindXx101]

+Julian Moriarty Use the "Extend" option instead of "Duplicate"

[@kirkmaxking8522]

how would you get audio to come out of tv aswell

[@alwayslookinround]

Good video, very helpful. Always nice to meet a new Mystie as well. LOL!

[@josematos1978]

thank u so much had the waier for a long time but did not know hao to connect to my tv thank you.,.

[@josematos1978]

THANK YOU

[@tex197126]

thanks,good vid. that's what i was missing. gonna do that tonight

[@christianzen2004]

graphic card is everything, some TV's are not compatible with the resolution that the graphic card is able to handle and the opposite is also true. Drivers could be the problem some times, but most of the time is a hardware problem.

[@bill7778]

Thanks this video helped with what i needed.

[@nursetequila]

Thanks so much, all I had to do was connect my laptop to the tv and it automatically connect didnt have to go to the control panel at all

[@BigWigglyStylez]

How do u keep it playing movies while streaming from a website and be able to close the computer? I don't wanna watch a movie with an extra screen of the same thing but smaller lol

[@big1finger]

What operating system are you using? With 7 just right click the desktop and select screen resolution and go from there. If you are trying to run a different OS then you have to figure it out for yourself. Actually you should know how to use an older OS in you don't have 7 or 8

[@maryhughes8495]

Hi Dave. My Gateway has only USB ports. Is there a converter available to bridge USB to HDMI?

[@mirangermanll]

U should be able to, if your tv has a USB port.

[@jimmymckendrick7384]

i'll try this today ..hope it works ...

[@RawToast]

that sounds sooooooo good intel WATCH your videos before uploading them

[@ShalmiShalvi]

Hii, I tried to connect my laptop to my Sony LED TV through HDMI cable, but not getting connected. My query,is whether, any special HDMI cable does it require to do this function or what? And please help me for getting connected.

[@Dee-hi5zj]

did your cable have SONY printed on one end? if so, I think it's supposed to plug into the SONY monitor. I think I'm having the same issue.

[@Sobeckofficial]

Thank you. Helped my sis a tons.

[@pivot01cammy4]

Hello, my laptop doesn't display full 1080p resolution but my tv does, yet isn't displaying my desired resolution, rather it's being displayed in 1366 x 768, what do I do to fix this? I've put it on duplicate and extend, no progress.

[@2twinsdna]

The sound for the video only comes out in the laptop right? Not from the TV? Do we need something like a sound cable for the sound to be coming from the TV?

[@shockle28]

sound comes out the Tv with windows 8. I remember it didn't for me when i had windows 7 so i guess that's why.

[@2twinsdna]

shockle28 I see. Hmm, I'm using Windows 8 as well, but it comes out from the laptop instead. Is there a setting in the laptop I require to change?

[@shockle28]

Im not sure, but the sound has came out the laptop a couple of times when i first plugged the hdmi in, but i remove the hdmi then wait for ring pause the sound then plug the hdmi back in and wait for the ring to sound from the tv if it sounds from the laptop then it hasnt worked. You can change the screen settings by going to the "control panel" and clicking "adjust screen resolution" they have screen settings there. hit "detect" when hooked up, my tv comes up as "LG TV" and i select that as the main screen, dont forget to click apply to activate new settings. try different settings im sure you will get there.

[@2twinsdna]

shockle28 Thanks! I realised that for the sound to come out from the TV, I have to change the sound settings in Control Panel, where I have to disable the other speakers and enable the speaker for the TV. It worked!

[@shockle28]

sweet, its much better with the tv sound.

[@jacobguevara8395]

Does it matter if the screen is bleeding will it still display?

[@stoicmanwts]

thanks to sharing with us

[@mary-louisekarius6829]

HI - I am trying to follow your tutorial but my display does not show 2 screens it shows 1/2?? Any ideas - thanks

[@jamescc2010]

If I don't have a laptop available, then what are other inexpensive options? Thx

your phone?

[@alfargiano8372]

[@MountainGardenGirl]

Good video Thanks. Too bad my TV is so ancient it doesn't have that option :(

[@big1finger]

you need a computer that shares audio along with the video. If you don't then turn up the volume on the PC and use your existing speakers.

[@angeson1]

TY Dave

[@TwoThousandAndPretty]

Very helpful, thank you!

[@buzzlightyear6796]

I can connect my HP laptop to the TV using the HDMI cable, and get the audio to come out the TV. BUT I can't get the beats audio equalizer to control the sound coming out of the TV.

[@presterjohn71]

buzz lightyear How could it? The TV is not equipped to be altered by Beats software.

[@buzzlightyear6796]

presterjohn71 But the audio is originating from my laptop. I thought the HDMI out port was controlled by beats audio. I found out later that the HDMI "out" port bypasses beats audio. My bad.

[@VRLoft]

Love that at the end it WASNT a Netflix movie!

[@noel888]

I didn't get the part about how you enlarged the screen view on the tv...something about 11 or ...the audio wasn't clear on my pc.

[@worldcancercarecharitables6532]

Thanks great knowledge...

[@Salt-Upon-Woundss]

The fact that you can do this ive been doing it for years makes me wonder why smart tv's even exist i will assume its because not everyone is what you would call tech savy

[@craigcoffman69]

Doesn't work. I've watched a ten videos on youtube on how to plug in HDMI cord and change input on TV. I tried two TV's and two laptops. Display settings doesn't detect TV? tried windows update and intel website. Any suggestions? Thanks

[@mrgoodbarman7048]

One question how do you turn it off

[@rishitsrivastava3684]

Shut down your tv. And your laptop

[@sgt.anarchy3939]

Is there any modern way to do this without a cable? I don't want to have to buy an adapter to got onto an hdmi cable just to plug it into my computer.

[@dublonzky55]

Buy a chrome cast or roku stick, or lay your head along the train tracks and wait patiently.

[@mindze888]

Does this work with window Xp ?

[@mindze888]

yeah about that. Is there any intermediate device betwen TV and laptop because my laptop doesnt have HDMI thing. Sorry for that english though.

[@ambercastro8178]

i plug in all the cords and then my laptop goes black and i cant hear or see anything and my tv screen still stays blue??? help

[@graham6329]

Easy to follow instructions however misleading title. This is not streaming, it's sending data through a wire connection to the TV. I want to know transfer content from laptop to TV wireless.

[@TheKimdunn]

Thanks.

[@URZARAGE7777]

Thanks for the tip

[@user-tz5uq2bt1s]

2:55 -There aren't two screens displayed. Just one. No other one is detected. My computer detects when I plug in the cable. It does the little sound like when you plug in a mouse or something. I am using an HDMI cable. My tv is on HDMI 1. I am plugged into HDMI 1. My HDMI cable does not have a side specified for TV.

[@sparklyyy2645]

does this work for any laptop such as toshiba laptop ?

[@shelliesharpe4904]

Thank you DAVE!! I CAN DO THIS! :)

My Hp laptop has windows vista and my tv is sony flat screen . I followed all the steps connecting the vga cable . When I power everything up , I get a blue screen and the laptop continues to reboot . Does anyone know what the problemmight be ?

[@laggery]

...well I guess some people still didnt know how to connect PC and TV via Kabel (HDMI or DVI or VGA) But I think the title, streaming is misleading some people, who where searching for the WiDi technology like me ;)

[@chessdude67]

Windows is always cranky. :-) Sorry, had to say it. Thanks for the tip! Thumbs way up!! Take care.

[@TheBigyiin]

misleading title this is not streaming.

[@roccotool]

You have to be told how to watch a video on your PC?

[@TheBigyiin]

roccotool no i dont need to be told how to watch a video on my pc. the title is missleading because he simply watches a video via a direct hdmi cable. which is not "streaming" i was looking for a video on streaming because i wanted to learn if i could stream from a dlna server to more than 1 dlna receiver..

[@presterjohn71]

roccotool Looks like it is you that needs to be told something!

I have bought this cable only to realize my TV monitor doesn't have this port, is there any alternative cable?

[@JoelEmmanuelMusic]

If your TV doesn't have even a VGA port then you won't be able to do it (unless there's a digital box which does something like this)

[@streetlights2924]

Jabirupilot1 Aww, I was convinced I would be able to do it. My monitor is a TV/PC LG monitor (I can both watch TV channels and use it as PC). But I can't find HDMI port on it, too bad.

my old laptop doesn't have a HDMI port but my new TV does. What do I do?

[@Intel]

Hi, if your laptop does not have HDMI port but have Display Port or DVI port you might still connect to HDMI port of your TV by using an Adapter/Connector or you will need to use DVI to HDMI cable. But be aware that DVI does not transfer sound to TV so you will need to use a 3.5mm jack cable to setup the sound connection. Regards - HA
