Dell :: Inspiron 15HDMI Output?
Mar 16, 2010
I helped my aunt to order one of new inspiron 15 with I3-330m
http://www1.ca.dell.com/ca/en/home/L...s=cadhs1&s=dhs
From gallery, the middle picture at the bottom actually told me that it has HDMI coming with it, that was why I pulled the trigger, but today when I checked with tech spec, it said no.So I went for a live with dell, they told me it had not as well, but I doubt it as CS just sent the tech spec home page and told me it had not
The strange thing is when I go online and check youtube , an unboxing video of New dell inspiron 15 do show it has hdmi output.

I need to connect my HP Envy 15 to my TV`s VGA port, and I'm looking for the best alternative. This is because I only get a stretched picture when I connect it to the DVI port through a HDMI > DVI-adapter.
HP has an official HDMI -> VGA adapter. What's people experience with that? Perfect? Problems? I see that Envy 15 is not listed as a supported model for it, but does that matter?

I'm doing a bit of shopping for friends... they're on a tight budget and have basic needs, so I thought the Inspiron 17 would be a good choice.
I was looking at the core i3 model listed at 799$ here.
In all the images we can clearly see an HDMI port on the left side of the laptop, but it is not listed in the Tech Specs section.
I asked a sales rep through chat but he couldnt provide me with convincing evidence that this laptop did/did not have an HDMI port.

I am owning Inspiron 1545 laptop and i own a TV which has only HDMI inputs. Any way to connect the laptop to the TV's HDMI Input.
My understanding is: Inspiron 1545 does not have HDMI outputs, only VGA.

When I switch the laptop on, I hear the HD spin up and the lights/ buttons for sounds & media can be pressed, but I do no get any output on the screen. No Dell Logo, nothing. I do not see the Hard drive activity light on again after this either. I have tried the hdmi cable as well the indicator light does not indicate it is running.....

When I looked at the "Overview" on the Inspiron 1720 at Dell's site I noticed that there were no DVI/HDMI video output ports. Can someone please confirm this? Is the only monitor output a VGA port? If so I think this royally sucks! My e1705 comes with both VGA & DVI...

I have Inspiron E1705 with WUXGA (1920x1200) which I want to connect to my rear-projection TV that has only component video inputs.
I've bought this S-Video to Component adapter:
[url]
But when I switch to external monitor (TV) via Fn-F8, the screen switches to 1024x768 (TV starts showing in that resolution too), and there is no way I can raise the resolution.
But I really want HD 1080i !
I know my TV can support it, as I can switch my XBMC to 1080i and TV switches to it.
I tried to play with PowerStrip options, without much luck.
Is there any way to achieve my goal?
I have Windows XP Professional SP2.

my finger is currently hovering over the BUY button of a great 1080p monitor at a great price. There is only ONE left in stock and I have a dilema!!! My specs are shown below.
Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T8300 (2.4 GHz, 800 MHz FSB, 3 MB L2 Cache)
4096MB 667MHz Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM [2x2048]
256MB ATI Mobility RADEON HD 3450
320GB (5.400rpm) SATA Hard Drive
Genuine Windows Vista® Home Premium 64-bit
Fixed Internal 8X DVD+/-RW Slot Load Drive including Software
Primary 9-cell 85 WHr Lithium Ion battery
15.4" Wide Screen WXGA (1280 x 800) Display with TrueLife™
The other day I played a 720p mkv file via HDMI output to a tv, with no problems, picture/sound was fine.
I then tried 1080p output of another video file, via HDMI to the same tv. This tv has a native resolution of 1680 x 1050 and I know that this is not full HD (1080p) which is the resolution of the video I was trying to watch but if I recall the display settings on my laptop were set to 1080p... The video was unwatchable and choppy, pixelated and skipped a lot.
I then tried the same video via VGA with slightly better results, running this time at the natvie resolution of the tv (1680 x 1050). The video was less pixellated but still skipped, enough to make it unwatchable.
I have eliminated the cheap (Ł3.50!) HDMI cable as the VGA cable was also similar in quality.
My question is this:
Is this poor quality simply due to the fact that my GPU cannot handle pumping out 1080p via hdmi/vga output to a TV? (it plays fine on my laptop's native resolution of 1200x800, although clearly that is not 1080p so it seems that the GPU can handle it?) If the GPU cannot handle it then I am dissapointed as I assumed when purchasing a laptop with a HDMI port that I could output full HD videos to my televsion.
On the other hand if I purchase this new monitor that supports full 1080p HD will the video play ok? In other words, is it the my televison, and not my laptop that is the problem; surely the GPU works just as hard to play the video regardless of what the display output is?

To preface this post I am in no way new to HDTV or computers for that matter, but I wanted to get some facts straight.
I am moving into a house at school and wanted to get a decent TV. I am getting a 27" Tube HDTV.
I am moving in a fraternity house so an LCD or plasma isn't something I want to invest in just yet. So please don't recommend one of those. I am planning on hooking up my 1710 to the TV and wanted to know how the Component Video Output looks on it, to make sure its true 720p/1080i or if they are just sending a 480p signal out of it. I am assuming it will be HD but I wanted to also get some first hand responses from anyone that may have used this output on a tube HDTV. I know a standard tube will look like garbage but I am hoping a HD tube might perform better. I MAY use DVI to HDMI, but with my room configuration I have to get a 12' cable so DVI to HDMI in that length might be too pricey right now.

I'm thinking of buying an external blu-ray player for my wife's 1320.
Questions:
1. I'm almost sure it'll work with her Intel graphics. Am I right?
2. As you know the Vostro doesn't have a DVI or Display port. Will it output the full 1080 to our 23" monitor through the VGA?

I'm weighing my options for multi-screen setup for my new E6400. The two obvious set-ups are:
1. Laptop screen + monitor through VGA or DisplayPort. Less $
2. Dock + 2 monitors through VGA & DVI, or DVI & DisplayPort or DVI & DVI (depending on dock) more $$$
Is there a possible way of setting up two-monitors through the laptop without a dock by going through the VGA & DisplayPort that are already there?
What is the maximum output resolution on the VGA port

I was wondering whether there was anyway to plug two external monitors into the i9300 so that one was the 2nd display and the other replaced the main display on the i9300. I'd quite like to use my laptop as a desktop pc (have the lid closed and hidden away somewhere) but I suspect that the two outputs are mirror/cloned versions of each other - can anyone clarify? And if this is the case, are there any compatible nvidia cards that I can use that will allow me to use two separate external monitors at the same time?

I've asked Dell but they are clueless..... does anyone know if the Studio 17 laptop can output display to twin 24" screens at 1920x1200?
Ideally I would like to know if it can output a digital signal to both screens?
Dell suggested that it may be possible with a Displayport to dual DVI cable.....
I haven't ordered the laptop yet so would consider any options that would allow dual digital display.... eg. upgraded graphics card or use of a docking station.

I have a studio xps 16 and whenever I plug it via HDMI to my tv (which has a 1080p resolution) there are black bars all around the image, meaning the image is smaller than the tv. I've set the resolution of the tv (from Catalyst Control Center) to 1920x1080 and it still won't do full screen...

I decided to try playing some 720p video on my Sanyo 42" LCD HDTV (native res 1366x768). I assumed it would be as easy as just connecting an HDMI cable and setting my m1530 to clone desktop.. I couldn't have been more wrong.
After doing some research it appears that LCD HDTVs aren't as flexible as regular LCD monitors with respect to HDMI input. No matter what I do, the screen always appears cropped around the edges on my TV.
What I've tried so far:
1) Setting a custom 1366x768 resolution in the nVidia control panel.
2) Tried setting my hdtv as primary monitor and setting the res.
3) Used Powerstrip (program) in an attempt to force a 1366x768 res (not sure if I'm doing this entirely correctly, I'm a little confused over what the correct advanced timings should be).
4) I hear this issue is called "overscan", so I looked through my TV menu for any overscan or zoom/image scaling options but couldn't find any.
I'm using the 179.28 Nvidia driver.
I'm running out of things to try, does anyone know how to make this thing work?

I have heard numerous comments stating that individuals are only getting Stereo Sound from their HDMI port but then other comments explaining that yes, indeed, it supports Dolby Digital....5.1 Audio etc.
The HDMI port is 1.2 which allows for a PCM 8 audio stream signal.
I have a receiver that allows for internal 7.1/5.1 Audio streams (all of the latest codecs can be decoded and processed) with HDMI output/input connections.
Will I be able to send a 5.1 PCM Audio stream to my AV Receiver and thereby utilizing the full range of audio?

new SXPS 16 owner (Windows 7). I'm trying to run HDMI out to an external XL2370 Samsung monitor.
Works, but the image shows postage stamped (black border on all four sides. So the image is 21" diagonally on my 23" diagonal screen).
If I hook the SXPS to my big TV via HDMI, I get the same result (postage stamp).
If I hook up my HD camcorder to either my TV or my new monitor via the HDMI port, the image fills the screen as expected.
If I hook up the SXPS to the new monitor via VGA, it fills the screen. So this points to the HDMI output of LT being the problem...

I watched a movie on my laptop and connected my surround audio receiver to the audio out jack. At first,
I heard feedback whining from the speakers. Once I disconnected the AC adapter power cord and used only the battery did the whine go away. Do you guys notice the same behavior?
It looks like the AC adapter is not fully shielded.

After 5 happy years with a fully working I9300 I NEED to upgrade to a notebook that will handle Blu-ray burning ,
HD video editing, and output to HDMI port. I am noticing that notebooks like the XPS-16 and Sony FW series have HDMI output ports but no SVideo or Composite ports (but do have VGA 'monitor'
will STILL want to output to my standard video TV or to any other screen or system with only SVideo or composite inputs.

I know there are users who have been able to get sound out of their E6400s over Displayport, but all the users i have heard from and read about this from have had integrated intel video. Are there any E6400 with nVidia quadro nvs160 users that have successfully gotten digital audio out through the displayport using a displayport --> HDMI cable?
