Very often there is a need to demonstrate this or that video material to a large number of people. A computer or laptop monitor is not suitable for these purposes due to its small size. Therefore, it is best to use a TV for showing. How can this be done?
Necessary
Camcorder and cables to it, video cables for connecting a computer and TV, blank disks
Instructions
Step 1
If you need to show a video, then the easiest option is to burn it to a disc and play it using a player. To do this, you will need to buy a blank disc. There are usually two types of discs: R and RW. The disc with the first type of marking is disposable, that is, having recorded any material on this disc, you will no longer be able to rewrite it. The second disc can be rewritten an unlimited number of times. If the video file is small, then a CD is enough for you. If the file is large, use a DVD.
Step 2
The second option is somewhat more complicated - connect the TV as a second monitor to a personal computer or laptop. To do this, unplug your computer and TV. Never try to connect cables while the power is on, as you risk burning the connectors. Now you need to choose the right cables for the connection. For the best playback quality, you need to connect not only the video cable, but also the audio. To do this, use a cinch cable. Such connectors usually do not exist on a laptop, so use an adapter. After connecting, turn on the TV first and then the laptop. After full download, configure the settings.
Step 3
If you don’t have a DVD player and the necessary cables to connect your TV and computer, you can use your camcorder. The set with the video camera usually includes all the cables with which you can transfer information from the computer to the camera. Also, almost all modern camcorders support memory cards. This makes it easier to transfer files from your computer. Refer to the instruction manual for your camera for instructions on how to connect it to your TV. It is best to play videos with the power connected.
