RE: Broadcasting Powerpoint and TV on Plasma?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Is the plasma a TV or just a monitor? What are you using as a tuner?
The plasma should have a 15 pin VGA connector for 1 input.
If you're using a VCR as a tuner you can use the composite (RCA) input
for the TV video and use a remote to change inputs. Have you been
change the cables manually? What exactly has been difficult with switching
the inputs? I know Producer doesn't do anything live yet. If you have a
tuner
for the computer you can set an action button to open the TV application and
set it to full screen. But using a remote or the monitor to switch the inputs
would be smoother.
