Depending on the external device being used. Some require you to manually activate HDMI output in the settings. For example if your using a DVD player. Hit options or settings and you should have a display or output menu. In rare occasions it can also be a lose connection. Iv had a few HDMI cables that don’t give a secure connection. So try using another cable. Worst case is your tvs HDMI 1 port is faulty. Unlikely but it’s possible. Some HDMI Cables also differ in quality. Some premium brands have longer pins to make better contact with the pins in the TVs hdmi port. Whereas cheaper cables can have smaller pins or even broken/missing pins. When the cable is plugged into your tv. Try pushing it in or wiggling it a little and see if that helps. Don’t push or wiggle it to hard though.
Hi , just access the monitor on-screen display (OSD) menu and ensure Monitor input mode is configured for HDMI ( Asus speak the " desired input source" ) - Input select is accessed under tv with arrow icon : change from vga to hdmi
This sounds like a basic setup, so correct me if I made any wrong assumptions.
You have 2 "output" devices: a Roku and a cable box. Both have HDMI outputs.
You have 1 "input" device (your TV) that has 2 HDMI inputs available.
So, you need one HDMI cable to connect your cable box to your TV. Remember what HDMI port it's connected to - the back of your TV probably says "HDMI 1" and "HDMI 2" or similar. That's the "input name" of your TV.
Connect your Roku to your TV with another HDMI cable.
Now turn on your TV and use the remote to change between the inputs. Most remotes have a button that says INPUT or SOURCE (or sometimes a dumb little icon with no writing). If you press that it should change inputs. Usually, each time you push the button will cycle to the next input, so sometimes you have to hit it a bunch of times until the on screen menu shows the input you want. Most TVs will automatically switch to the selected input after a few seconds, so you don't have to push any buttons on the remote to tell the TV to change inputs.
If "at the same time", you meant actually watching both Roku movies and your cable at the same time, you are talking about a TV feature usually called "picture in picture". That should be possible, but will depend very much on your TV. I'd suggest checking your TV manual, or calling the company's 1-800 number and asking them to talk you through it.
newer tvs need to know that HDMI is attached to give you signal also need to turn on device from where HDMI signal comes from.post the model of your tv ,or if universal remote has input try this,1.- connect hdmi ,2.- turn on device(dvd,ps3,blue ray, etc.) 3.- press input on remote ,or go to menu manually on tv and find input.hope it works.
TVs need an input to display a picture. Some TVs have several inputs and you must select the one you are using. Example: my TV has four HDMI inputs on the back. If I connect my PC to one of the HDMI ports I must select that input in setup to display My HDMI ports are labeled HDMI 1, HDMI 2, HDMI 3, and HDMI 4. If I connect my PC to HDMI 3, I must select in setting HDMI 3 as the input.
1
Check the back of your Sharp TV for the HDMI input. These
will be long, thin rectangular jacks labeled "HDMI." Most Sharp TVs will
include another label on those jacks with an input number ("Input 5,"
"Input 6" or the like). Remember that number. It will have a bearing
when you turn on the TV.
2
Connect one end of an HDMI cable to the input jack on the
Sharp TV and the other end to a compatible component such as an HD DVR
from your cable/satellite company or a Blu-Ray disc player. The TV won't
broadcast in HD if you can't connect these devices with an HDMI cable
(though it will still broadcast in standard definition using RCA cables
or S-video cables).
3
Turn on the TV and the requisite component (Blu-Ray, DVR).
4
Press the "Input" button on your remote. A list of signal
sources will appear on your screen ("Input 1," Input 2," etc.). Use the
cursor to maneuver down to the input number corresponding to the HDMI
outlet you just hooked up and press the "Input" button again.
5
Press the "Menu" button and maneuver the cursor to select
"Option." Go to "HDMI Setup" and press "Enter." Move the cursor up or
down to the desired item and hit "Enter" again. Then move the cursor
from side-to-side to select the proper setting. Hit "Enable" to allow
the Sharp TV to automatically recognize the HDMI signal and "Digital" to
get the proper audio signal from the HDMI cable. Then hit "Enter"
again.
Decide
what type of connection to use. Look at the back of your DVD player. It
should at least have RCA (red, yellow, white) output ports. It may also
have component out, S-video out, VGA out, or HDMI out. These
connections vary in picture quality and price, HDMI being the most
expensive and providing for the highest-quality picture. Whichever type
of connection you decide to use, you also need to verify that you have
the same connection on your TV. Flat screen TVs typically have more
connection options than other types of TVs, so you should at least have
component, RCA and HDMI inputs.
Connect
the DVD payer to the flat screen TV. Take one end of the cable or
cables you decided to use and connect to the output on the DVD player.
The other end should be connected to the corresponding input on the TV.
Video input connections are usually found on the sides of flat screen
TVs. Once the DVD player has been connected, you are ready to use your
DVD player.
Check
DVD player functionality. Tune your TV to the input that you used for
your DVD player by pressing the button on your remote labeled "input,"
"source," "TV/video," Source select," "TV/AV" or the like. For
instance, if you used an HDMI cable plugged into your TV's "HDMI 1"
input, press the input selection button until you see HDMI 1 on the
screen. Power on the DVD player, insert a DVD into the player and press
play and you should now see a feed from your DVD player.
