Once a HDMI cable is in use... How can I watch the Visual on television while using the computer?
for example... all looking at a Visual played via media player... full screen, the Visual is both on the laptop and the TV via a HDMI cable. Where is the setting, so you can watch the Visual on television, while the laptop was taking full advantage of windows... ?
Hi Joel,
Please see the following article on how to configure two monitors in Vista (and also read the referenced right articles that contain valuable additional information): http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Set-up-multiple-monitors.
Here is another article on the configuration of two monitors which contains a few minimum requirements: http://skattertech.com/2008/04/setup-multiple-monitors-in-vista/.
Here's an artidle on how to connect a HDMI TV to a computer and the address where the controls must be. You probably want to extend the screen rather than clone it (if it has options for this). http://huestones.co.uk/node/74.
I hope that these references will help to solve your problems.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

HOW CAN I STOP "BUFFERING"?
Hello
1. what web browser is installed on your computer? (Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc.)
2 are you facing this problem with any particular Web site?
Buffering or Streaming media is multimedia that are constantly received by, and normally, an end-user while being delivered by a streaming provider (the term "present" is used in this article in a general sense that includes audio or video.
A media stream can be broadcast live or on demand. Live stream is generally provided by a device called true streaming. True streaming sends the information directly to the computer or device without saving the file on a hard drive.
To stop the buffering or to increase the speed of buffering, there is no option within the operating system. Only way to stop or to increase the speed of buffering in some measure is to have a connection with a higher bandwidth. But note that as does you not an option of continuous play in CD or DVD.
Another work about that I do personally is to pause the video at the full buffering and watch the video once the buffering is completed.
For more information, see the following Microsoft articles and check if that helps.
