Are HDmi cables needed to watch HD tv?
Both HDMI and DVI carry up to 1080p and are the two common domestic interfaces. If the signal source and the TV are both capable of handling 1080p, they will almost certainly have an HDMI interface. However, the fact that an HDMI interface is fitted to a device does not mean that it will handle 1080p nor does it mean that it will handle HD at all - there are many SD DVD players that have HDMI but still only deliver SD material.
What will I need to make my LCD digital color tv work in UK?
There are several factors that need to be taken into account. First, North America uses 110V while Europe is based on 230V power supplies. Many products will operate on any voltage between 100 - 260V but American products often are restricted to 110V. The only way to find out is to read the label on the equipment itself. It is possible to use a transformer to deliver 110V but they are not cheap. Second, the television signal is different between the two countries. North America uses NTSC at 60Hz and Europe operates on PAL at 50Hz. Again, many televisions will handle both but that cannot be assumed. Lastly, the tuners operate on different frequency bands so it is unlikely that a direct aerial connection will operate. So, it the television operates on PAL, has wide range power supply then maybe it will work in the UK. By the time shipping has been added to the overall cost, it is not likely to be worthwhile to bring a US television to the UK.
Can you use a 5 amp fuse instead of a 4 amp fuse in a television?
I have never seen a 4 amp fuse, only 3 and 5. The peak power draw and dump is when you switch on and off your TV. Try a 3 amp and if it blows when you turn it on, then no, your particular TV can't use a 3 amp fuse. Don't worry about this test, it shouldn't damage the TV and fuses cost so little.
Can you watch Blu-ray movies on a DVD player?

Most manufacturers have recommendations on what size would be appropriate for your proposed viewing distance.
Sharp aquos baby!!!!! skeen im only joking its samsung series4
---- There are several features of performance that you need to take into account when choosing a 'best' large screen TV: contrast, persistence, graceful degradation ... I doubt any two viewers would exactly agree on ranking different models.
You should look at Samsung as a marque - I did (but I chose differently).
You should also look at competing models from Sony, Philips, and Toshiba. It would do no harm if you also checked out comparative reviews in magazines.
But you are the person that has to watch it:- let your own eyes decide.

Can you connect your laptop to your TV and get picture and sound using a HDMI cable?
Unfortunately you can't. VGA is an analog signal whereas HDMI is purely a digital signal. There are several ways to connect the two:
First, many televisions have component inputs that will accept an VGA signal. If it does accept VGA, there will be 5 connectors marked R,G,B,H,V. An adaptor cable can be purchased to connect a 15pin HD connector to the separate connections. Take a few minutes to read the manual for the television to see if the connections are available.
Next, there are USB based video displays that can be connected to a laptop to provide an additional display output. Select one that offers either an HDMI output or a DVI output. DVI does not carry sound but otherwise is fully compatible with HDMI. A DVI - HDMI cable will connect the computer to the television. You will need to use a separate audio connection and most televisions offer an analog audio connection on at least one of the HDMI inputs. Again, refer to the manual to check.
Finally, buy a VGA to DVI or VGA to HDMI adaptor. These tend to be more expensive than USB display ports so it's the least attractive option. If this is the only option open to you, make sure that the converter will handle the screen resolution of the VGA output before placing the order.

How do you watch your old VHS tapes on your new LCD TV?
First, you need a VHS player. If you have a collection of tapes, the player is probably available to you. You will need to take a video and audio signal from the VHS player. In Europe, it will probably be a Scart connector, a 21 pin rectangular connector that carries video and audio. In North America, it is normally an RCA connector for video and two RCAs for audio. The leads will connect to the television on one of the input channels. It will probably have a yellow, a red and a white RCA socket (Phono socket). Make a note of the input number or name and select that input using the remote control.
You should now have the VHS player showing on the screen. Remember that it will still be VHS quality even if the television is HD so don't expect a miraculous improvement in quality.
Do LED or plasma TVs have better picture quality?
Although it still depends on its technical specification, in the vast majority of cases an LED TV will be better. LED usually has a sharper image as each pixel is being changed individually by a different diode meaning that the picture also changes quicker and smoother. It is also thinner and lighter physically.

Why are Sony TVs more expensive?
You can walk around a Costco or TV retail store and compare Samsung TVs to similarly featured Toshibas or Sonys and 11 times out of 10, the Samsung will be more expensive, even though the specs will be the exact same on all of the TVs. First of all, the picture just looks better. But we had to find out why. It seems Samsung has a proprietary technology copywritten as to the placement of its side light bulbs, the bulbs that give top notch HD pictures their brighter, but not glare-y, appearance. It seems that no other company is allowed to put their bulbs there.

If your car can actually play DVD's it is highly likely that it will be backward compatible for recordable CD's.
You may have to record the disk as a CD using WMA file format.
Check that your player can play MP3 files, then more tracks can be used in MP3 format.
Can a blu ray disc player be connected to an analog television?

A plasma antenna is a type of antenna in which the metal conducting elements of a conventional antenna are replaced by plasma. A new antenna made of plasma (a gas heated to the point that the electrons are ripped free of atoms and molecules) works just like conventional metal antennas except that it vanishes when you turn it off.
A regular TV has a Cathode Ray Tube (CRT). A CRT is basically a large vacuum tube in which a electric beam emanating from a single point in the neck of the tube scans the face of the tube very rapidly which, in turn, lights up red, green, or blue phosphors on the tube's surface to make an image.
Plasma TV is based on flouresent light. It contains cells in the two glass panels that are separated by a narrow gap which is injected with neon-xenon gas and then sealed in plasma form during the manufacturing process. The gas is electrically charged at specific times when you use the TV. The gas then puts out groups of red, green, or blue phosphors called pixels (picture element). The reason Plasma TVs are flat is because you don't need a tube. Using a sealed cell, you eliminate the need for a CRT.
