Q. I got these earphones for Easter, and I kind find a way to plug them into my PC to work. I tried looking on the computer front, but the slots did nothing. I looked behind my speakers, and they had no earphone slots. My last resort was probably my computer screen. It's a Refurbished Dell UltraSharp 170 FP LCD Monitor and I'm wondering if anyone happens to know how to solve this problem.
A. The back of the computer. The green jack is for output to speakers or headphones. Buy a Y adapter and plug your speakers and your headphones in to that.
Is it possible to use an LCD monitor for a TV?
Q. I would like to purchase a LCD monitor and hook it up to my tivo and some speakers, they are so much cheaper than LCD tvs. Is this possible? Do I need some type of converter? Do LCD monitors all have the same inputs? Help please!
A. It depends on the cable service you got your Tivo hooked up to.
If your cable service is standard-definition (uses coax or composite to connect to a TV), then you can't use a computer monitor.
If you have digital HDTV cable service and the cable box has a DVI or HDMI output, you can use any HDCP-compliant LCD computer monitor to display the HD cable box's video output.
The video signal carried by HDMI is in fact single-link DVI, so a DVI-to-HDMI cable can be used to connect an HDMI cable box to a DVI monitor. And cable boxes ARE TV tuners (which is why they have remotes for changing channels), so the monitor does NOT require a tuner on-board to work with an HD cable box. It merely displays whatever DVI signal the HD cable box is telling it to display.
Since broadcast-quality High Definition TV signals are at least 720p (1280x720 resolution), pretty much any LCD monitor can display 720p, as long as it is HDCP-compliant so it will work with the digital HD cable box.
If you want 1080i broadcast HD, you should get an HDCP-compliant monitor that can display 1920x1080 resolution.
Keep in mind most computer monitors have no speakers. You will have to hook up a separate set of speakers to the cable box to get audio.
Hope this helps.
