GazzaGSi Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Bought a flat screen monitor a while back and wondered if it could be used as a spare TV for the bedroom while I get setup in my house?

DamanC Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 You would need a tuner of some sort with VGA or DVI Output Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 yeah you'll probably need some RGB converter unless what you are trying to connect has DVI/HDMI outputs etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobbeh Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 I meant a converter box, the signal from TV is different to that the monitor will accept. TV signals wont run directly into a PC monitor as they're different, you need to sort out the sync etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willson Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 I'm guessing something like this... http://www.amazon.co.uk/External-Digital-Freeview-TV6818E-wide-screen/dp/B001EDTVDO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
