Can a plain monitor be used as display, or is a TV needed?

I haven't tested it, but I belive it is possible via hdmi. The box cant tell the difference its if the monitor will accept the signal

A TV is needed as I had the same question as you do, but you do need a PC monitor with built-in or separate speakers as well as the proper A/V inputs, like HDMI or the regular 25-pin (typical regular monitor) and a 3.5mm (stereo type) for your audio signals from the TV box. I am using a HP LCD 21" monitor with HDMI and RCA inputs at the back. After these A/V cables are connected you end up with an Android OS computer with a big screen monitor that look like a TV but works as a computer with (wired or wireless) USB keyboard and/or USB mouse plugged into the TV box and remote console all work at the same time for on-screen programming and other selections.

In this case the TV is a display. You can connect any monitor via HDMI or other present connection and it should work fine.

A standard width monitor isn't going to easily support that feature. I'd you're going to use just one monitor, is check out the ultra wife monitors designed for that very thing.

If you computer is DVI, then there is an inexpensive adapter for using with the HDMI. Yes, works well as monitor.

Yes you can and I do. You do need an HDMI cable or a DVI to HDMI. It works fine once you fit to screen, lower the sharpness, and put it into game mode. I'd say the only thing that makes this not a worthy monitor is the dot depth. That is basically how far away the pixels are from one another. If you are to close you can actually see the pixel borders, but if you a about a foot and a half away Id say you cant see them any more.

Hello, the answer to your question is that the monitor is not a TV. The monitor has no Tuner to receive TV signal. You can use the monitor for your PC. It has a VGA port and a HDMI port. For more information you can visit www.lg.com and search the product.

Can't use it as a monitor the way it is-doen't have a vga or dvi terminal. You will need to get a pc to tv converter to connect the vga output from a computer to the rca composite terminal on the tv.

I assume you can, the monitor has connections for VGA, DV-I, and HDMI. I was very disappointed in the resolution, but connecting it was easy enough.

Yes, you will need HDMI cable to connect to your monitor/TV. Make sure it has HDMI input.

I tried using a hd tv as a monitor once. Your choices of resolution are greatly narrowed. I personally don't recommend using a tv as a monitor system. But, yes the adapter should work just fine for the graphics but bear in mind dvi doesn't support sound. Since the computer has an hdmi port that cable would be better since hdmi supports digital sound.

If you projected a computer screen onto it. It needs a computer display of some sort.

Hi Gordon, yes, you can. Just connect the HDMI cable to your computer for you to use it as a monitor. Thanks_Mitch

Oh also you can buy a mini hdmi to full size hdmi adapter for under 5 bucks off ebay and run an hdmi tv as a monitor. But for best quality you should buy a high definition monitor. My 22 inch monitor looks crappy compared to the asus Hd screen.

No, this monitor has VGA and DVI (w/HDCP) connections. You could use a HDMI to DVI adapter or HDMI to DVI cable for functionality.

Yes you can. You just need a VGA cable. The same one you use to connect your computer hard drive to the monitor.

You will also need an HDMI cable from the display port to your TV (or monitor). Hope this helps!

I connect my pc up to the tv and use it when I need more desktop space. You can also use your tv as a stand alone monitor.
