Yes, it is perfectly okay to connect the HD DVD player to a regular SD TV set as long as you can match the connectors on the HD DVD player and SD TV set. There is no harm doing it except that you will not be able to get HD picture. What you will get is 480i/p or 576i/p picture and not 720p or 1080i/p picture. Hope this answers the question to the readers' satisfaction.
Almost all BluRay players have an analog video output which can be used to connect to standard definition televisions. The output is a copy of the HDMI output but is only standard definition. To experience the HD quality, and HD television with an HDMI interface is needed.
That is not possible since HD-players use HDMI for connecting to the television. It wouldn't be very useful to connect HD-players to SDTV's, because that way the player has no advantage over a standard DVD player.
HDTV stands for high definition television, which means that the quality of the picture coming from the television is of better quality than a regular standard television.
Some higher-end televisions such as Sony can utilize special webcams for particular models, but a regular USB webcam cannot be directly connected to most HDTVs. You will have to connect the webcam to a computer, and connect the video output of the computer to the TV.
Blu-Ray players will NOT work on standard definition TVs. They will only work on an HDTV and that requires an HDMI cable
HD ready tv is High Definition - meaning more clear, concise and crisp picture as well as sound. There is special programming through your cable for this if you have a High Definition television.
If your PS3 was set for HD TV and you want to connect it to a regular or standard 480i TV go to your settings and change them back and also switch back to the A/V cable that came with the PS3 from the HD cable. This is not rerouting your PS3 it is changing the PS3 television monitor
Yes you can. Virtually all Bluray players have an analog output which is standard definition. This can be connected to the video input of any television and you will see a standard definition image from a Bluray disc. The quality won't be as good as is on the disc of course but at least the disc will play. It is normally possible to set up the HDMI connector to output a standard definition signal. This is probably not of much use as almost all televisions that have HDMI inputs will also accept high definition signals. It might also be worth pointing out that standard DVDs will also play on a Bluray player. Using the analog output from the player with a standard DVD playing will give the same quality of image as any standard DVD player.
DVDs were designed with standard-definition TVs in mind. While they look great on standard-def sets, they're not able to take advantage of the benefits of high-definition TVs. As televisions have become more advanced, DVD's limitations have become more apparent. Blu-ray, on the other hand, is a high-definition disc format designed to maximize the viewing experience available from today's HDTVs. Blu-ray discs and players offer several advantages over the regular DVD format, including improved picture and sound quality.
BluRay discs carry high definition television and therefore store data in a high density format. A standard definition DVD player will not recognise a BluRay disc and will simply report an error if one is loaded. On the other hand, a BluRay player will not only play BluRay discs but will also handle standard DVDs. Most will also recognise and play CD format discs. Most Bluray players will also down convert the HD signal from a BluRay disc so that it can be viewed on a standard definition television. In this case, of course, the image quality will be the same as any other standard definition signal. To benefit from the high definition signal, an HD television is also required.
Yes. Blu-Ray players will only operate with a standard definition television using the analog outputs on the player. The outputs are standard definition of course, so the HD quality of the BluRay disc won't be seen.
A regular TV won't have HDMI connectors but it might have COMPONENT connectors, these will give you a extended definition picture.
