Love how he didnt waste my time and spoke in plain English AND time stamped it like a pro👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Other channels need to learn from this 👌🏾
Oooof!! I'm telling ya...
exactly! And was super informative with the pictures of different ports :)
Exactly.... He answered my question in 1 minute.... Other channels 6 minutes in and still lost
@@elenadominguez7101 yes indeed love that
@@ejc8933 HOW RUDE!
My dude, your explanations are on point. You are never too fast, nor too slow, you don't use distracting music all these are gold for non-natives who have sometimes difficulty understanding what is the person saying especially on a IT channel. Keep up the good work.
Agree. This one of the best videos ever. He speaks clearly, says many things in more than one way---a very professional video. Usually the presenter is hemming and hawing or speaking too fast or has the background music too loud.
Right, he is a good teacher...he explains things so the listener can clearly understand unlike many teachers who rattle things off way too fast just because they already know it like the back of their hand.
ABSOLUTELY, JUST FOUND HIM AND I JUST SUBBED. JUST FOUND MY TECHIE GUY
I agree, straight to the point! No cinematic b-roll, pan shots of the TV or hdmi cord.. lmao. Thank you bro. Finally a video I didn’t have to skip over the fluff. Thank you good sir.🎩
hi my i have the same setup my i want my tv as my sound output ,i have used an hdmi cabel still i cant see an option for tv
Slight correction: the vga and hdmi ports on the desktop and laptop computers are actually "output", not "input", ports. Great explanation! Far better than a lot of stuff on other similar channels.
Yeah true fact, unless there is maybe a capture card installed in the pc.
Been PC gaming for most of my life but this is the first time I have set up dual monitors. Got a hand-me-down.
Huge thanks for this video. The troubleshooting sections covered all of my issues. You are a star.
dude. i have been messing around with my samsung TV in this exact scenario for 2 days. thank you thank you thank. the timestamps are legit too.
Glad it helped!
@@Itcareerquestions excuse me,(8 month later hehe..) i going to use a TV for movies/youtubes and my old 24inch monitor for gaming.. i still not sure how am i going to setup(for cabling yes,understood)..can u at least point me to the right time stamps for it..(english is not my mother tounge language,sorry). Thank You..
this is the only video i’ll probably watch. but i’m subscribing cause it’s worth it
Lol thank you! your comment was more than enough to show your support!
@@Itcareerquestions Dude, a question for you. I have a hp laptop with its screen broken, quite an old one, and runs win 10 64 bit. The CPU part is very fine indeed, and I wish to use my TV as the monitor. I have used a HDMI TO HDMI port but the TV doesn't recognise it. What should I do?
ah yes my greatest creation
bleach
Me too. I wonder if he knows how much this is appreciated.
Ok mr. clorox bleach
This is the best video I've found that explains this process. Clear, to the point, easy to understand (I'm in my 60s and not very tech savvy!) I've had so many people tell me more complex solutions that I don't need or want such as casting, as I am only wanting to see my desktop photo galleries on a second tv for artwork purposes. Thank you so much for making this video.
Your tip on fixing the 'zoom' with the remote saved my sanity. My Sanyo remote button said 'pix shape' and it was the magic button. Thank you so much!!!!
The time stamps are next level 🤟🏻✨
Thank you for this comment. I was hoping they would be!
Rlly?? I not seen em
@@Itcareerquestions i have hdmi in my 720p tv will it look good
I think it's helpful and creates a great service. If he also left it in the comments, he would benefit in growth and engagement if he did. I'm subscribing as a first time viewer.
@@Itcareerquestions my desktop resolution and my active signal resolution dont match ? any ideas ? desktop resolution 1280x960( i whant that resolution) but my active signal resolution is 1280x1024
I was literally stressing out about how I was going to see my students and my presentation at the same time. This video is a godsend!
Me too. This helped tremendously
I like how you presented this information in such easy and understandable terms. I wish that I had been fortunate to have had an I.T. instructor back in school like you. Thanks! 🙂
Wow you really hit all the marks on this video & went straight to the point. I never “like” videos but this one was awesome. Also I only needed one piece of information but kept watching because you’re honestly a great teacher. Great job.
Good job Zach! This will be very useful for people working from home who are in need of an extra monitor!
For sure! Thanks brother. Will hit you up on Twitter, seeing your post just reminded me
that's why i came here. work from home
@mtb supertroll how is that lazy
@mtb supertroll my dad makes 50/hr and it’s work from home, easy job just translating stuff but I don’t see that as being lazy since he is still WORKING??? Even for someone making 5555/hr as long as they work I don’t find it as lazy
I hooked my HDMI cable from my computer to the TV but it’s still showing no signal on the tv. What should I do next? The cable is in HDMI2 and I selected HDMI2 as well
take another adapters like he is talking about
@@milobengt3539 did that. Compatibility may be the issue

This is one of the most useful youtube videos I have ever seen. Simple and straight to the point. Very helpful. I trade stocks and now have 2 monitors including my laptop and tv. Awesome video!
Excellent "how to" with basic troubleshooting. Just what I was looking for. Thank you!
I love these kinds of videos! Doing tech related how-to videos and related genres are a ton of fun! Your teaching method is really appealing. Also may I suggest tech news? I would like to hear your opinion on current events. I know it's been done to death but i value your perspective.
Thank you! I'm definitely considering doing more tech news for sure and you will see more videos like this as well. Thanks for the comment!
@@Itcareerquestions How would I hook one up to a rear projetion television? I have one t.v. and it's made in 2001. Is has s video on the back of it. Needless to say, it don't have hdmi available.
But that goes without saying of course. I bought a vga to av adaptor. I hooked up the vga part from the adapter to my pc. And i hooked up a av cable from the adapter to my vCr...
Which is connedted to my t.v. Of course that did not work. Any information you may know, would be exremely helpful. Thanks.
Excellent tutorial. Very thorough and well-paced. And thanks for the thoughtful timestamps. Super helpful!!
You are wonderful! I actually understood what you were talking about!! I successfully run 6 one hour Zoom programs for
homebound seniors weekly. I've taken on a weekly assignment of bringing my program to an assisted living community.
I encounter all kinds of issues trying to hook my laptop with my program all set up with You Tube and Power Point. My screen is not duplicated on the TV screen. All that shows is the Screen Saver photo with my task bar across the bottom. I am hooked up to their HTM1, but cannot make it work. I have had help from a computer person at the facility and they are running out of patience with how much of their time I am using up trying to make it all work. They have given me options of putting my one hour program on a flash drive...and while I have been able to do that with my PP, I am unable to do it with You Tuber intteractive quizzes or entertainment clips. Since I see from this video I cannot "test drive" the change in multiple monitors until I am at the community. I think I will go in a day before my scheduled class and try it out....
Wow - I am blown away. Great info, detailed info, AND timestamps? This is pro-level 3000 knowledge sharing right here. Thank you!
Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video! I can't believe how simple it was to hook up my 32" TV to my desktop PC. And, as "william devonshire" points out, the time stamps ARE next level !!!
How did I do it
Possibly most helpful video Ive ever watched on youtube... Love the time stamps
you are such a great person for helping us and explaining it really well and thanks for the tips
3 years later it still helpful
Thanks for the help
Hi, I'd like to know if you experience any input lags on the TV while typing and doing basic stuff.
Thanks 🙂
You are going to experience some input lag but depending on computer and monitor it shouldn't be noticeable
It depends on your monitor and laptop !!!
For some reason I can't get my tv to adjust even after watching the video. It makes my apps and other details too big. Any ideas on how to get this fixed? I'm using an HDMI cable and a Panasonic Plasma TV.
yeah me too.when i`m using my laptop to connect to my tv using an hdmi cable.
You can scaling in windows
Look into windows scaling on your computer.
you are the best I've come across on UA-cam regarding showing people how to do something
I've seen a lot of videos on UA-cam and the people on there seem to assume that you know exactly what they are talking about when half the time you don't but you explain things in the right way
DUDE thanks for not wasting my time finally I could see a video 10 minutes long and enjoy every second
Been thinking about doing this to add a second monitor to increase pradactivity. Very informative.
You should!
You should IF your computer, video card and a majority of your software supports it.
My brain smol :'
Yes you can.
THANK YOUUUU!
I.T. Career Questions help it’s all connected the pcs on but the tv says no signal
As some one who is not very techy I was able to set up a second monitor and get my sound to come out of the speakers I had not attached to the tv I needed set up as my new main monitor. All because of this man and this video! CANT THANK YOU ENOUGHT!! I didn't think I could do it I was sure I was going to have to ask one of the people at work to help me but I DID IT!!! Thank you so much for this easy to follow and easy to understand video!
This is 1 week before having a cpu and I don't have a monitor, when I realized I can just use my 43 inches LG smart tv and didn't have to buy a monitor because of you and this video, thank you so much this video helped me alot
So helpful, loved how you could easily forward to which section you need by looking at the text above the button. 100% of my questions answered and it was easy to understand. Subscribed !
YES A PLUS
Very nice explanation. I thought my son how to do this since it was very helpful for me during my college years. Over 15 years ago😊😊 it's been a big help for him with his virtual class. It's even better and easier now to do it with the Smart TVs. I highly recommend Sony Bravia and Samsung😊
Thanks man, i was going crazy trying to avoid spillage/ cropped out screen. Thanks man
Oh my gosh! you just saved me from my online classes! Thank you so much this is super helpful!
Is there a fix for overascailing?
Im directly just using my tv as a monitor (hdmi) direct plug and im getting so much extra screen size its going outta my tv
You may have a pc mode on your TV or the option to turn off overscan (just scan), This should resolve this for you. Another way is to customise the margin in the relevant control panel for the graphics option you are using, whether that be a DGPU or an IGPU
i think my iq just improve bc of this video
If it did.....I'm sorry....because it would have improved lol not improve
Very helpful for someone who knows very little about COMPUTERS and is up in age. I find these things very interesting and it helps me to know what to do with my tv and laptop. thank you!! MJB
This is the best tutorial video I've seen out of over 10 videos on how to connect your PC to your TV. Good job!! Thank You!! 👍
how to make android tv as a primary screen so that we can run computer on tv screen and wireless mouse n keyboard can be used Directly with tv not the laptop.please respond🙏🙏🙏
Add wireless mouse to this set up and voila
How to set up a 4 bank monitor that can have ,say, a word doc on one, an excel spreadsheet on the 2cd monitor....etc w/ the capability of scrolling/moving your mouse cursor from one screen to the other?
This is single handedly the BEST tech video out there! Thank you!
There's a problem 😅 i can't connect my laptop to my tv whenever I try it shows that I have to try to reconnect it with the help of action center! Please help 😊
Brilliant! A great well thought out and logically planned video that even your grandma could follow.
You deserve all the great comments you get.
I’ve hooked up my desktop to my 37”flatscreen wall mounted tv and run the sound through my high end computer speakers. Did it all within an hour or two and all works perfect. Thanks Dude!
Damn this is a great video man! Unfortunately I damaged the touchscreen on my HP 24 AIO computer the other day when I had it in my truck🤬
Is anything different from what we all see going to happen when one connects a computer with a spoilt monitor to the TV using an HDMI cable
This vid helped me in 2024. The sticking point for me was that the hdmi output from my pc to tv was NOT the same one that I had been using for my pc to monitor connection. Still not sure why on earth this should be the case haha but this vid was a godsend while waiting for a replacement monitor.
I have a soundbar connected to the TV will the audio go through that or will it only go through the speakers in built on the tv?
It should still work through the soundbar if the soundbar is connected to the TV for audio.
@@Itcareerquestions Yep your right it worked Thanks mate.
So I have a Samsung TV and I'm trying to use my HDMI cord to make it as a second monitor but nothing pops up help???

Is the HDMI connected to the GPU port?
Great personality, easy to understand, direct and to the point. Wish I had viewed this one first.
Bruh yo teacher/ professor lived up his legacy and thank you so much 🙏
Thank you for all your guidance! You perceived the issues we would have and addressed all of it! You are FANTASTIC!
I instantly noticed that, when pointing out HDMI inputs, you didn't mention that a GPU has it's own HDMI input. That will be the input you want to use if you have a GPU.
Ricardo Jaye if your monitor supports display port it’s better for gaming!
This is awesome info Thanks a million , I'm 76 and not very skilled in tech stuff but I think I may be able to do this thanks to you
Oh my goodness! This actually worked with just the HDMI 2 hookup! I gave up when I got my new computer! Thank you so much! Now I have to find out why I can't connect to my bluetooth devices.
this man covered everything, I almost clicked out because I couldn't find what I wanted, but nope, he just knows everything and just gotta remember that patience is a virtue, I was just like 13th in line LOL
Excellent job on this video. Thanks so much for covering everything I needed to know to fix my problem of not being able to see my task bar or the top and sides of my desktop as well. I spent over an hour messing with display settings on my laptop and of course that didn't solve the problem. Thanks again!
Thank you so much!!! Money saved!! Now I don't need to buy another monitor, as I had a spare tv just collecting dust.....Thank you!!!!
Wish everyone's UA-cam videos were this great. Thank you!!
When I hook up a HDMI from compouter to the tv - it doesnt show anything ;(
u first need to change the source on your tv to hdmi
Your TV remote probably has a button labeled "Input". Press that button. A menu of various inputs should pop up. Scroll through the inputs and try the HDMI inputs. On some TVs you won't see anything just scrolling through the menu. You'll scroll through each HDMI selection, but the blue screen remains. You may actually have to select each HDMI input before the TV accepts that input. It's stupid, but some TVs are made that way.
@@milankuncak I did that, and nothing happened.
@@christianemerson4622 IF you plug your high quality HDMI cable (cheap ones might not work) into the HDMI output on your video card or other HDMI output on your PC AND you plug the other end into an HDMI input on the TV, which may have more than one (mine has three) you just have to make sure you select the right one from your Source Menu on the TV. If it doesn't work, try a different HDMI cable or a different HDMI input on the TV. Don't think it doesn't work until you've tried *every possible option* and nothing works.
I am wondering if it's like a gaming laptop or computer, or it's just the same?
I have a gaming laptop, it's the same
im working from home and was doubtful about using my tv screen as a sec monitor and didnt want to spend money so this helped the heck out of me Thank!!
Is it possible to connect a keyboard on the tv?
Thanks, it helps after few trials. Productivity better. :)
Great to hear!
Thank you! 08:13 This is what I've been searching to do for a long time!
You are da' man! No munbo jumbo or freaking annoying music.
I would have taken me forever to set up my PC to the TV. Thanks so much!!! 🥰🥰🥰
You solved a few mysteries for me. I love the super simple explanations and demonstrations. It worked - yea! Thanks so much!
Very helpful, practical, knowledgeable and time-saving! Gracias, amigo!
👍🏼 Wow! Excellent video that even a tech dummy will be able to understand! You really go through the whole setup thoroughly and answer most questions one could have regarding using a TV as a monitor. I still have another question though: Don't you have problems with e.g. the input lag and other parameters on a TV? Usually TVs are set up for watching Movies and the like and not for playing games and the color space is not set up for image editing etc.
Excellent presentation. Answered all questions
We hooked up a Samsung TV to my computer. The screen was cutting off on the edges. Your video showed us how to fix it!!! Thank You!!
i needed a second monitor for my little sister and this helped SO MUCH thank you!
how do you reverse the action so my tv(monitor) turns into my tv again??
Just change it from hdmi to what mode your TV displayed on previously! :)
I'm a millennial who constantly gets called a boomer by my teenager. I just subscribed and I can't wait to Bing watch your videos, so I can surprise my teenager with how skilled I've become by watching your videos. Awesome IT content. I'm sure glad I came across your channel
😊 🦕🦖
Thanks man. This was awesome . I had absolutely no idea about how easy this could be. Thanks man.
Does This Mean That I Can Use My TV And My Monitor As a Double Monitor Setup?
Yes
You sure can.
How can I do that I need help!!!
@@vhatedeliteatm2939 just plug your tv hdmi and go to windows display settings and select screen extend

Thank you sooo much
Love Australia xx
This is the best computer video that this 61 year old granny has seen. Subscribed.
Hey dude, I love your video, but you keep referring to outputs, as inputs.
You came through on this video! #Thanks
For sure!
💯💯💯💯
Ohm'gosh!! That was great! Your teaching video is great!! Identifying all the ports on both TV and laptop with pictures,.... show and tell.
Took the hdmi cable got everything plugged in and BAM! Laptop screen is on TV. Only thing is I had to turn the volume on the TV up 4times as high to get a decent volume.
Thanks again for your professional help to this great grandma with barely any computer skills. ❤
Did this is on my Msg66 stealth works perfect. Dude i must have got a badass laptop because its so streamline and user friendly. Simply followed your instructions and everything worked. No problem with sound at all. its fantastic!!! Thanks my dude!
Love your shirt only a geek could come up with it 😊
Haha thank you!
my tv is always showing "no signal"
Same here, dude. I don't wanna pay $200 for a monitor for my $1,000 PC
change the input settings to HDMI
Jellisa Williams I did and it’s still there
Thank God You speak very clear and explain it the way I can understand. Being asian not easy sometimes to catch up when people talks but eating their words. I appreciate your effort and it's worth my time🙏😇
Very thorough explanation, thanks for your guidance.
I plugged my Acer into my RCA tv and I am currently waiting for the fire department to arrive
Clearly not enough people used Acer products.
Formally Gateway Computers, almost burned my apartment down!! Didn't know this was common
Great video instruction - you covered almost EVERYTHING and in an easy way to comprehend. I have trouble seeing my TV from my computer which is 10 feet to the side - so when I'm in EXTENDED mode - I can't navigate on my TV unless I get up and move the mouse to the exact spot and click it - a huge pain :( but that's my setup in the living room.
Thanks for helping me with this. I need this video for my data entry job. So again thanks for being here for helping me out
I have watched many videos on this subject as I am so un-techie. This guy is the very best! thank you!
Thank you so much! I am working on my dissertation and the laptop screen is not cutting it for reading journal articles AND typing the prospectus. Subscribed for all my tech needs!
So glad I found your video. Exactly what I needed. Now tomorrow morning I'll go get my extra Vizio and try
Your shirts are super clever and cute, so 80's with a technological spin. This tutorial is great as others have mentioned your pacing of directions and clear voice makes it easy to understand and follow. :)
I started to watch the previous version from 2014. So excited to see the update. You do a great job.
