Yes Mr. @hownos, I do it all the time. Actually, I don't see other options. Yes, smart TVs appeared during the last years but my old Full HD LG gives so great picture that I don't think to change it for now. So, I'm still with HDMI.

My TV refuses to connect to the wi-fi signal, so yup, still do it the old way and it works just fine.

You could try casting. I find it doesn't always work



I was watching something the other day on my laptop, and the camera work was so gorgeous I thought, "What heck am I doing, plug this into the TV" - 53 inch was much better than 15.

(and as I said earlier, my TV steadfastly refuses to connect to wi-fi, and my troubleshooting has failed, so that's why the plug in option and not the other)



No I haven't ever connected a laptop to a tv by HDMI. Why would someone want to do that?
Oh how I love the old soul in you, CR.

But to answer the question. I don’t anymore. I don’t really need to have my computer screen put up on my tv. I either cast stuff or use apps (through my NVIDIA Shield) or sometimes I transfer large 4K files to a hard drive and plug that in the Shield as well.

But mostly doing stuff wireless these days.

Same here.



I have a fire stick so I have an internet app on it. I can view anything online.

Plus, my laptop suxs.
I find those internet apps on firestick clunky to use and not of good quality.

It's their Silk app. It's created by Amazon. I have no issues with it.



Don't have a tv at the moment but i used to. Used ad blockers watched all the streaming and YT no ads.

Also they have things like this. https://www.spoofee.com/amd-ryzen-7-...r/deals/976313

I gave up tv b4 i could buy one, but that was the plan.




I'm a tech idiot. A simple question... when you connect a laptop to the television to watch a film does the quality suffer at all going to a bigger screen?

I want Disney+ but my cable company doesn't offer it/the app on their cable box, but I can watch it via laptop and hdmi cable.
