best way-p7 - 1380t dvi to hdmi to a HP w2207h monitor connections

Have 2 computer - current connecting using DVI/VGA DVI outputs. You want to connect DVI to HDMI. Are there advantages? and, the best way to do it?

GDicker, welcome to the forum.

Here is an explanation of these two connection types:

DVI to HDMI

DVI is a digital signal in the same format as the video portion of HDMI. The difference is that DVI does not carry the audio signal like HDMI. This means that if you use only the video signal, you can use a simple adapter DVI to HDMI plug that changes the physical connections. If you want to switch from a DVI with audio source, you will need a converter active to combine the video of the DVI source signal and audio in the HDMI signal.

As you can see, DVI is a digital video signal and HDMII is a video and audio connection digital.  Simply using an adapter DVI to HDMI will only give you the digital video.  Therefore, the advantage of the DVI to HDMI will give you a digital signal.  VGA is an analog connection.

  • What is the best way to use the Y50-70 battery please?

    I bought the laptop y50-70

    but I want to know what is the best method to use the battery.

    and the best way to recharge.

    NOTE *.

    IAM always use the cable and I gave the battery except a few times.

    Thank you very much..

    Best way to use the battery, if your laptop should ALWAYS be connected in-

    Go to eat energy Lenovo - should be a RED icon in the system tray - and choose the mode for a better health of the battery (or battery Protection or health of battery optimized mode).

    I don't know what the energy Manager version you have, but the option must seem similar. What it does is, it will keep your battery charged ONLY up to 60 percent and will increase its service life.

  • B276HUL supports full-resolution Windows 7 on DVI or HDMI?

    B276HUL supports full resolution (2560 x 1440) of Windows 7 on DVI or HDMI?

    I tried to connect it to my laptop on Windows 7 (video: Nvidia GeForce GT 540 M, all drivers have been updated) but without success (I just DVI 1920 x 1600)

    Can you tell us what I have to do to get this working on Windows 7 and full resolution?

    Thank you

    Hi Rob

    The B276HUL indeed stand up to 2560 x 1440 resolution. Maybe it's that your laptop only supports up to 1920 x 1600.

  • Problems of range with DVI to HDMI Windows 7 64 bit

    I have a problem that becomes really annoying due to the fact after searching the Internet for two days, I found many people with the problem, but no solution.

    Here's what I have:
    Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
    NVIDIA 450 graphics card
    Westinghouse 26 "L2610NW
    I used this system for about 6 months with a dvi connector vga for monitor without any problem whatsoever. A month ago I bought a blueray player so I could watch DVD blueray on my HDTV. Finally got the software that I needed to show the blueray discs and when I loaded one up the program told me I need pass port dvi or hdmi to my graphics card I monitor to view these movies protected against copying.
    I got out my dvi to hdmi cord supplied with the monitor and who has worked on an old system of Vista of mine and plugged. When I rebooted my system the only thing I get on my monitor is an error output. I know what means an error output, and I don't understand why windows trying to push my monitor beyond what it is set to go.
    I have my video card and windows set to operate at 60 Hz, which is pretty much my only option other than 59 hz. I tried both and always out of the error no matter what.
    I have the latest Nvidia drivers for my video card and called Westinghouse and they claim that it is a problem with Windows.
    What gives? I spent a lot of money to watch the bluerays on my PC, and while my system seems to work great, I really need to solve this problem. At this point, I'm willing to sell the thing whole dang and start over with pieces of work verified even if they are smaller than what I'm running now.

    I ended up buying a new monitor and now everything is working properly, and so I have to assume that the problem was in the monitor and probably not windows itself.

    The monitor I bought had no cable so I use cables I used on the old monitor and everything works fine. I can even watch commercial blurays on this system now.
  • Blu - ray and the sound of my Dimension 9200 to the HDTV and receiver-best way surround?

    Hi people.
    I have a Quad Core 9200 with exit DVI (7950 high-end graphics card). I think I have a burner or a blu - ray player to play HD content on my HD with 1080 p via HDMI (adapter) on my PC. I have a receiver sound srurround that can accept the audio standard on my PC (front, rear, center and sub).
    What is the best way to address the issue?

    What Blu - ray player?
    Sound card? Do I still need for 5.1?
    What software to read the BLu - ray to my TV "seamless"? I don't want to see the borders of Windows Media Player by watching Blu - Ray movies.

    Thank you

  • What is the best way to connect the Xoom to a desktop monitor?

    I would like to power mirror my screen xoom on a desktop monitor for presentations by small group to the site.  I've seen some of the threads on hdmi to vga, hdmi/DVI and hdmi to hdmi, but I'm a little confused as to what is easier.  It seems that if you go with hdmi to vga you will need some type of converter, not just a cable?  If it was just a cable that would be perfect.  In addition, another option would be to hdmi for display port (published in December 2010), has anyone tried this? Thank you!

    @uberpixels,

    I think the easiest way is using a HDMI output on the Xoom to an HDMI-> DVI Cable. or HDMI-> VGA Cable. I use an adapter at right angles (adjusted to avoid breaking), HDMI port which offers a complete female HDMI.

    Here's the thread on this adapter:

    https://supportforums.Motorola.com/message/401234#401234

    Then, connect a HDMI-> DVI Cable for the monitor. If you want to copy to VGA, you may need to add the + 5V using the applicator of tension mentioned in this thread:

    I have a portable DLP I use with the Xoom and choose to use a small HDMI-> VGA Converter that meets my needs. Here's a thread on this configuration:

  • What is the best way to buy an iPhone Unlocked 7?

    Hi all

    I am currently using T-Mobile and want to get the new iPhone 7. Since there is no option for a sim-free iPhone, what is the best way to buy the new iPhone? Should I get the T-Mobile one full fare? I know that he will be released version but it will come with a T-Mobile sim so what will do with the sim card? Put it away or give it to T-Mobile? Or should I wait for the version without card sim to appear, which I don't think that will come out until November, and I don't want to wait that long.

    Thank you in advance.

    If you do not want to wait to pay full price for the model from T-Mobile.  You can do whatever you want with the SIM card.

  • Best way to make my SSD works again with a single partition

    There are 2.5 years, I replaced the original on my computer with a SSD hard drive. Months after I installed the beta version of Yosemite, the latest operating system for Mac at the time. To do this, the system created a partition on my drive, in which he has installed the beta version of Yosemite.

    I have today on the same partition, I installed Yosemite, Sierra macOS running. In the other, I have all files, so I want to eliminate. However, when I try to do this by using the disk on my Mac utility, it is not possible; I get a message that says I can't delete the first volume of the disc. When I try to increase the size of the partition on which macOS Sierra operates, so reduced the size of the other, the system won't let me.

    I would like to know what is the best way to make my SSD works with only one partition.

    You cannot delete the last partition that was created, that not 1.

    You can clone the content from the 2nd to the 1st, then you can remove the 2nd.

  • Cannot repair the photo library. The best way to restore from iCloud library?

    The photo library of the system is damaged and cannot be repaired.

    It is said "Photos has attempted to repair the library"Pictures Library 2015 ", but can not open it." .


    I first met problems with this library a week before and at the time where I could repair and open the library successfully, but lacked a month value of photos.

    Given that it was successfully in the iCloud library, I left it to re - sync - but this process suspended several times before the end, and the photo library of the system now seems to be permanently damaged.

    I have no project of marked or impression of faces in the photo library of the system, then I would be happy just to restore from iCloud.

    My plan is to put in place a new - empty - library and then that designate the library of the system.

    If I understand this right, the new (empty) system Photo library will now resynchronize with iCloud and will copy all the contents of this library of back to my Mac.

    Is this correct? It is the most effective way to restore my library?

    And while I'm here - what is the best way to manage a very large library? I had my photo library become corrupted ten three or four times over the past years and have found it necessary to divide into single years to prevent this. I overlooked this piece of household by the end of 2015, and now it's happened again... Surely, there must be an easier way to manage libraries of images of several years?

    Is this correct? It is the most effective way to restore my library?

    Yes, if you don't have a useful upward on your Mac.

    How do you call a large library, I've never had a corrupt Library, I think that your problems are not the result of the size of the library, but rather something else. From my experience it is recommended to maintain a local upward, I use Time machine, but also have a second to the top using a third-party backup solution.

  • best way to put in place a new iMac with saved files?

    Hi all

    I'm new here so please forgive me if I've done something wrong. Just recently got a new iMac and wanted to get all my software work of music and other files installed. I used the Migration Assistant on the iMac to move files from a recent time Machine to the top of my Macbook Pro. After what seemed to be a successful migration, I noticed that Garageband, iMovie and a few other products Apple should be updated. My new iMac has been updated the newer versions until the migration wizard has been used. My questions are, it's best to go on a new set up, and never has that somehow restored my new machine settings to the previous settings of the Macbook Pro? Would it have changed anything wise speed or image and sound quality wise? of resolution, depth of bit or similar?

    Thanks in advance for any help or answers.

  • URGENT! Best way to send a large project FCPX to another editor?

    Hello

    I worked remotely on a FCPX project for a client, and now it's time to transfer so that another editor can finish editing.

    We both have the same files source on our drives.

    As I began the project my end, I have the library FCPX here with the timelines for project I want to send him via Dropbox, BUT that the total library file is 768 GB! I am able to send ONLY the timelines for project? It will be capable of to re-connect media easily its end?

    What is the best way to achieve this?

    Help, please!

    Thank you.

    You may not use the managed media when you are working. Assign an external location for your media in the library properties. Consolidate the library for media are moved out of it. Create a library of transfer where you copy the items you want to share with the other editor. Send it to them. They have a record that must match yours with the media. They reissue the multimedia content.

  • Best way to create a variation of a FCP project

    I have a two hour video that I created in Final Cut 6. It's a pretty complex video, with lots of movement today, I want to make a shorter version of the same video, without altering or modifying the original video.

    I'm trying to understand the best way to do it.

    It would be better to make a copy of the original video and edit this copy in a shorter version of the original, or would it be better to create a new sequence in the initial project and build the new shorter version within this sequence?

    I don't want to confuse or overloading the PCF.

    Duplicate the sequence... and make your stripes and cut downs from there. No need to rebuild.

  • Best way to move the photos to an external drive and subsequent backups? Without using the TM

    I filled out my current 1 GB drive external hard, so have bought another. This time around 4 GB...

    I don't want to see TM this time I just spend all my photos/videos from my Mac to the HD and much obviously, then continue to do that in the future.

    What is the best way to do it? Also, taking into account future backups, I don't want to reproduce the photos/videos.

    At soon all, Russ.

    You can exclude files/folders in Time Machine preferences.

    However, I do not understand what you want to do in the future. If you only have photos in one place, you do not have a backup.
