Can a Digital TV Be a Computer Monitor?
- Video Graphics Array (VGA) is the standard used by PCs for video signals. All PCs have a VGA output port, and PC monitors have the same port for input.
- The good news is that more and more digital TVs have a VGA input port, just like PC monitors.
- All you need to do is connect your PC and television with a VGA cable and then change your TV's input to its VGA channel.
- VGA does not transmit audio, so you will still need your PC speakers in order to hear anything coming from your computer.
- HDMI, or High-Definition Multimedia Interface, ports are also becoming available on many PCs. With an HDMI cable, you can transmit both audio and video to your television.
