Can VGA to HDMI cables work as HDMI to VGA?
Unfortunately VGA to HDMI cables are kind of a scam. The problem is VGA is an analog signal and HDMI is a digital signal. A cable is not capable of converting something from analog to digital or the other way around. In order to connect between a VGA and an HDMI connection you must use an active converter that will convert from one format to another. These converters are going to be considerably more expensive than just a cable, but they'll actually get the job done. These converters run between $60-$300+ depending on the capabilities of the converter.
How can you convert HDMI to vga?
You can go online or to any electronic store to buy a hdmi to vga cable. This is a cable that has the hdmi adapter on one end and the vga adapter on the other end. This way you can convert a hdmi device into a vga device.
How do you connect your laptop to your hdtv with your vga to HDMI cable?
HDMI cables are used as digital video and data links between video sources and televisions. HDMI is compatible with DVI interfaces so if the laptop has a DVI output, a DVI to HDMI cable can be used. If the laptop does not have HDMI or DVI, then there is no way to connect the VGA output to an HDMI input. There are several USB based video displays that can be purchased to connect to the laptop. The display can be used as a copy of the internal screen or it can extend the desktop across both screens. Select a display port that has either DVI or HDMI outputs.
Do HDMI to vga converters work?
Yes they work well. There are many types but all have the same basic operation of converting the analog video stream of VGA into a digital equivalent. There is a myth that HDMI is better than other signal formats. Be assured that this is absolutely not true. An HDMI signal generated from a VGA signal will not be any better than the original VGA signal. HDMI is simply a digital signal format and carries a signal in the same way that VGA or any other interface carries a signal. So, use a VGA to HDMI converter if you need to connect it to a display that only has and HDMI input. Don't use one if there is an existing VGA input available as it won't make the picture any better.
How do you connect a freeview box with a scart output to a HD multimedia monitor monitor that has a HDmi and a vga port?
There is no way to connect these two without spending around £60 on an adapter. It would be cheaper to buy a Freeview HD box, then connect this to the screen with HDMI.
Can you use a HDMI to dvi adapter and dvi to vga adapter to connect your ps3 from HDMI to your projector by vga?
No. HDMI to DVI uses a DVI-D or DVI-I connection and is digital, but a DVI to VGA uses a DVI-I or DVI-A and is analog. The best way to connect a PS3 to a projector is to see if the projector support component video through the VGA input using a VGA to component pigtail adapter. The projector might have even come with one. You then need to purchase a PS3 component video cable. This will allow resolutions up to 1080i (if your projector support it).
Do stereo receivers still send componet signals with a HDMI input?

How do you display video on a philips tv using a HDMI to dvi cable that's connected to the pc via a dvi to vga adapter?
You cannot connect a HDMI to a VGA video output on a computer. VGA is an analog signal and the DVI adapter connects it to the analog pins on the DVI cable (a DVI-I cable has both analog and digital pins). A HDMI to DVI cable connects to the cable's digital pins, therefore, no connection is being made. The easiest way to do this is to upgrade your computer's video card to one with a HDMI output. These can be purchased for less than $50.00, and will allow you to connect your computer to your TV with one cable and no adapters.
Can you run full HD through a vga connection?
VGA can certainly support HD standards. VGA is a hardware standard for display interfaces and supports numerous resolutions including 720p, 1080i and 1080p. In fact, VGA ports often support even higher resolutions. The practical use of VGA for HD display has some limitations due to commercial restrictions.Commercial HD content delivered via disc, cable or satellite is exclusively delivered to a display using HDMI. This is a digital interface and supports HDCP, a protection system that encodes the signal to prevent copying HD material. Commercial HD players and receivers do not output HD signals through a VGA port as HDCP cannot be implemented on VGA ports.Non commercial HD content and some downloaded content can make good use of VGA displays but generally, HD material will demand HDMI rather than VGA. It is worth noting that DVI outputs on computers are compatible with HDMI but do not support HDCP, Therefore, the use of DVI is limited in a similar way to VGA.
Is there a way you can connect your SONY VAIO-VGC-LV1S to a tv. there is no signs of any outputs on the PC for you connect to the tv there is a HDMI input but no HDMI output also no VGA RGB output?
There is no easy way to connect this PC to your TV. It has no video output at all, and does not accept graphics cards. The only possible way is to get a USB to HDMI video converter box. This will tax the USB bus and provide limited performance, but it is the only way.
What Video card should you use for a 32 inch display?
like i said in a previous post, it all depends on your computer and what it can handle, now the difference between yours an the other post is your asking for a display, it all depends if you want to run it on hdmi, s-video, or vga.. most video cards have either hdmi or s-video.. sadly even your high end cards come with s-video. but they all come with a vga hook up, if your display has vga then u can use a dual male end vga cord, but u have to remember still your card has to be strong enough to handle a decent frame rate, if its a tv that is, if its a monitor it shouldn't matter either way.
How do you do a screen cast on the iPad?
The best way is to record the video output to a computer with a VGA or HDMI dock adapter, and then dub in your voice afterwards. It is not possible to run two programs at the same time with the iPad.
