HDMI and my ACER Aspire Notebook
I have a Acer Aspire; Notebook that has a HDMI socket on the left side. Is
this an input or an output? I have ordered a cable and I am wondering what I can use this port for. Can I play my DVD player into my computer? Can I use this to connect my TV as a monitor? If this is possible, how do I control it. Any advice? Bob |

HDMI and my ACER Aspire Notebook
My Acer Notebook is an Aspire 7535. The manual says little about the HDMI. I
received the cable today and connected it to my TV. The result is very good. Beautiful monitor! I have yet to try the DVD inputting to the notebook. I am a little nervous that I might see a puff of smoke from the key board. I will relate the results when I get the nerve to try it. Thanks for your response. Bob "Ben Myers" wrote in message ...

I think the HDMI is output only, i.e. display the notebook screen on a
TV. I'm pretty sure it can't be used the other way. On Wed, 30 Jun 2010 17:57:39 -0700, "Bob Fay" wrote: My Acer Notebook is an Aspire 7535. The manual says little about the HDMI.

I tried the DVD into the Acer. Well, No Smoke and No Picture. You are right!

It's an HDMI output to connect a HD display or TV. My Aspire 6930 notebook
has one in the same spot. HH "Bob Fay" wrote in message m... I have a Acer Aspire; Notebook that has a HDMI socket on the left side. Is this an input or an output?
