There are different ways to connect your laptop to your TV, including different connection types, adapters, even wirelesses connections, but for the purposes of this video we're going to be using a HDMI hard-wired connection.
PROCESS OF CONNECTING LAPTOP TO TV - This video assumes that your TV is on and connected to a power source.
1. Connect power cable to laptop & ensure power is on.
2. Connect a mouse - I find it easier to control the laptop and can be used even when lid is down on laptop and output is to TV only.
3. Plug in HDMI cable to back of your TV, taking note of the port used. I our case we used HDMI 2.
4. Open lid of laptop and power on, signing in if required.
5. Plug the other end of the HDMi cable into the laptop. The screen will go on and off for a few seconds whist the HDMI connection becomes established.
You have now successfully connected your laptop to your TV using an HDMI cable.
If you're outputting your laptop to your television to use the TV only, say your watching your favourite TV show or a movie for example, it would be advisable to adjust your power settings on your laptop to ensure that the laptop does not go to sleep, hibernate or shut down when you close the lid.
FOLLOW THESE STEPS TO MAKE THE (OPTIONAL) CHANGES TO YOUR POWER SETTINGS:
1. Go to power settings. You can do this by typing power settings in the search box on the bottom left of your screen in the toolbar - if your toolbar is set out this way.
2. Select 'power and sleep settings' option which appears.
3. When power and sleep screen appears, select 'additional settings' on right hand side of screen under related settings.
4.When 'choose or customize a power plan screen' appears, select 'choose what closing the lid does' from the left hand menu.
5. 'Define power buttons' screen appears.
6. Next to 'when I close the lid' option appears, choose 'do nothing' for both battery and 'plugged in'.
7. Close the windows accordingly.
To finalise the setup of outputting your laptop to the TV using an HDMI Cable, there are various DISPLAY SETTING OPTIONS you can adopt:
1. DUPLICATE SCREEN - where the laptop and TV screen match each other in terms of content.
2. EXTEND THESE DISPLAYS - Enables you to output different information on your laptop and the television, so you have essentially two different screens.
3. SHOW ONLY ON 1 - This option shows our laptop screen only.
4. SHOW ONLY ON 2 - This option shows out TV screen only, but you can retain full control of your screen by using a mouse if your laptop lid is closed.
