question of HDMI input

It is a question of pre-sales.  I see that some laptops Alienware support an HDMI input, and when I saw the feature, the laptop was connected to another computer via an HDMI cable or a HDMI of Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter.  The Alienware laptop has become something as a presentation device for another computer, with a copy to the screen of the computer.  Mouse and keyboard Alienware seemed to be inoperative until the issuing machine stopped sending.  Is this true?  Is it possible to interrupt the process of the machine making the display?

Thanks in advance

Hello

Unfortunately, I don't believe that it is possible. The other computer becomes a monitor, turning off all other functions.

  • Toshiba 32TL838: flicker after fw upgraded in the menus, using HDMI input

    Hello

    yesterday I updated firmware of my 32TL838 to version 6.4.0Y.1 / 94.6.27.8 using the upgrade feature network.

    After the upgrade, I reset the TV to start again with the factory settings.

    During the quick installation after the reset, I noticed a very bad video quality. The entire image flickered, had a ghost effect and looked at interlaced. The menus were almost illegible.

    Once the installation is complete, the TV switched TV (cable DTV) normal mode and at least the TV picture looked quite normal. While the input CABLE is selected, I can also open menus as before, they are displayed correctly.

    But as soon as I switch to the HDMI input, the image becomes nuts once again, just like during the initial installation, including recoveries of TV menu. Sometimes it becomes stable for maybe 30 seconds, but then he is paralyzed again.

    A few words about my setup: TV uses only input HDMI 1 and the cable entry, nothing else is connected.
    Links to HDMI input to a receiver Onkyo TX - SR508 AV which is powered by a Fantec 3DS4600 media player and the Blu - Ray BDP - S373 player.

    Because I expect the question of what-to-your-HDMI-wiring, I traded the HDMI cables but as expected which has not helped at all.

    At least, I seem to be successful by bypassing the problem when you use the Fantec drive.

    Before I updated the firmware, I was able to use the drive with 1080 p/60 Hz and the player has been installed as a result.

    Now I switched to 1080 p / 50 Hz, and the video image seems OK again. (However, I made a short test and as I said, sometimes_
    the image is OK for a short period).

    Unfortunately my BluRay player has no menu to change the frequency, so I watch BluRay or online services, the player offers, is impossible.

    So, what can I do now? A downgrade of firmware (if possible) would be a quick temporary workaround I could accept. But medium-term I'm expecting Toshiba to restore functionality that they promoted and for which I paid.
    (Youtube stopped working with the old firmware and it seems that 1080 p/60 Hz no longer works with the latest firmware).

    Anyone know how to downgrade the firmware using a USB? I already downloaded the previuos version tl838_853886.bin but I do not have a nail how (and if) it can be installed.

    Thanks for your advice

    Hello

    As far as I know the isn t possible downgrade firmware.

    But you said that you noticed this problem by using an external device connected to the HDMI 1 port.
    As far as I know the Toshiba 32TL838 supports 4 HDMI ports.
    I recommend you to check all of the 4 HDMI ports as well as to check all device configuration options.

    Check for example the rate of active movement + option available.
    This option allows to improve the rate of cooling of a TV

  • Apple TV is no longer active in order to correct the HDMI input

    Before the last gen 4 apple tv update, when the apple tv was turned on, the TV should be enabled (we have an older Sony Bravia) and passed to the HDMI input used by the apple TV. With the latest version of apple tv, the TV is turned on, you hear a click (as if the apple tv has been trying to pass the HDMI inputs) but used the HDMI input on the last remains. The HDMI input for the apple tv is never bound by the apple tv.

    Everyone has noticed this problem with the latest update to apple tv? I missed a configurable option that must be specified for the behavior of earlier versions of gen 4?

    Apple: Please restore the nice feature that existed before the last update to apple tv.

    Works fine on my system. How HDMI CEC depends on television, check to see if yours is an update. This is a user forum, you're not address Apple here.

    You may be able to find a connector to work but which would not guarantee that he would not stop working on the road. Minimal tech spec of the ATV4 is a HDMI connection to the tv. My recommendation is to upgrade your TV rather than trying to get a square peg in a round hole. That's just my 2 cents...

  • Dell inspiron one a HDMI input with output usb audio

    Hi, I recently bought a dell inspiron one 2330 and some of my blu - ray high-fidelity discs do not work very well at all. :(un peu déçu car c'était la principale raison que je l'ai acheté.)

    So I tried my blu - ray player in the HDMI port, but now it only uses the computer speakers not my B & W Zeppelin air via the USB input.

    If advice how to fix the blu - ray glitch player that seems to start and stop on most of my records or produce audio output to HDMI input to the USB port would be much appreciated

    Thanks in advance.

    Which seems to indicate a problem with your video card. The cooling works may not properly. I would contact Dell on the replacement of it. This may explain the poor video performance.

  • REGZA WL66: HDMI input has stopped working

    Hello

    the HDMI to my Regza WL abruptly arrested two weeks after having worked well for several years of work. Previously, the different types of devices have been recognized without any problem: DVD player, receiver, laptop, Media Player. Now, no device is recognized at all, the screen remains blue.

    The cable is not the problem. I tried with different cables and also tested the cable with the other monitors; they are ok.

    Is it possible to fix this?

    (The SCART and component input still works - but is not HDMI).

    Thanks in advance for any ideas.

  • Alienware 17 of xbox via HDMI input

    My input (HDMI-IN) does not work.  Im trying to play my Xbox360 on my Alienware 17 displays and he says he can.  I went on YouTube and I saw other people play screens I don't know how to use my screen. I mean I don't know how to turn on step by step. Help, please!
    1. turn the cap of the xbox everything in
    2. plug the 17 ALienware (HDMI IN) of entry and I pressed the key on the keyboard to
    3. nothing happens and when I press the button says "please connect device (HDMI-IN).

    I know you can do that too, it's one of the reasons why I bought my m17x r3 (old version of the Alienware 17). I have my xbox 360 sitting right next to me as I type this.

    Hear the concern seems to be that the system does not recognize the connection. I recommend you to install the latest drivers and bios (always good to do) and also test cable xbox and hdmi on another facility, such as a TV, to ensure that it works well.

    I would also test other hdmi, if you have a. As a cable box, player roku, tablet screen, other game systems, DVD players, etc.

    Let me know what happens :)

  • STR-DA5700ES no video/audio HDMI inputs no

    STR-DA5700ES has no audio/no video inputs HDMI (except PS3 hooked up through GAME that works). It was fine yesterday (for the last 2 years). Now, suddenly, there's nothing. I did a power reset (by holding the button until it has adjusted) and exchanged the HDMI cables. Any suggestions?

    Turns out have been a matter of HDCP, possibly caused by cables, which have now been replaced with new cables by their manufacturer as directed by their guarantee. The problem can only be solved by completely reset the 5700ES (memory clear). Please consult the manual of Sony if you're having a similar problem.

    A friend of mine tried to do the same thing, but he used some external device and special software which are necessary for his transfer and editing. Please don t ask me how it works exactly.

    If you want to record sounds by using its port, you can do this by using the utility of Microsoft Sound recorder, but I don t know if this can help you. All saved files are in wav format.

  • Question about keyboard input language settings

    Some wrong characters when you press on pump keys. for example: "when printing on keys 2 gives a @ onscreen, while that, you guessed it: @ gives '." "

    I think I got some settings wrong somewhere, I put everything to the United Kingdom in the language folder in the control panel (also in advance).

    It's probably pretty simple, but annoying, as usual, it is difficult to find what exactly to do in windows.

    If anyone knows what to do, please let me know.

    As far as I know if you instead of, you just change the keyboard input language. Please click the taskbar with the right button of the mouse and go to Toolbars > and enable the language bar option. On this way, you can see which input language is active.
