how sharp is the picture quality on a lcd monitor with built in tv?

It all depends on how fussy you are. The picture quality of TV on Lcd is fine for me.

It won't hurt the LCD monitor.  What situation would require this setup?

yes, you can.  What you need is either a monitor with red, yellow, and white inputs, or a monitor that will have them built in.\n\nGoogle around for a cable that will do it, im not sure that there is one, but I havent looked that hard.

You may need a color program balance the sharpness of your DVI connection I use a program called Natural Color which came with my monitor. It sounds like the sharpness of your monitor needs to be adjusted.  Also DVI is brighter than analog.

it is because of the difference in resolution.\ntypically, a television monitor is set at 270 X 480 lines. at 6 feet the pixels are a little blurry making the picture clear. If you looked at it from 2 feet away, it wold be real grainy.\nthe computer monitor has a much higher resolution, 800x600 and up, there for the higher resolution is seen clear close up. If you use a tv monitor for your computer monitor at 6 feet away, it sould be very clear.\nHope that explains it

Viewsonic makes an excellent flat screen. Mine is a 17 inch and it has excellent color. It is one of the most affordable name brands.

The first thing to do is check an make sure that you are running your monitor at the "native resolution".\n\nIn a flat panel display, the native resolution is the maximum resolution of the unit. Unlike CRT displays, the native resolution of a flat panel delivers the best quality. At lower resolutions, the quality varies considerably among different brands. However, increasingly, the quality is improving.\n\nThe next thing to check is the response time, the lower the better.\nAt one time 8ms was considered good for video, now there are 4ms and there may be lower.\n\nBasically this is the amount of time it takes a pixel to change, and of course, the faster the better. Older monitors didn't have very good response time and when you watched a quality video stream you received artifacts (square blocks) because the screen just could not keep up.\n\nHope this helps.

most HDTVs have a plug for PC input, but even though they are larger they are not as high resolution in pixels as some PC LCD monitors.

It's not recommended to do that, because the resolution of a TV screen is much lower than that of a PC monitor.  Your eyes will go bad pretty quickly.\n\nHowever, if you're wanting to do that, visit Circuit City or Best Buy.  There are a number of small, inexpensive (under $50) gadgets that will do this for you.

I recently purchase a Runco projector, its 1080i and works like a charm. Has lots of hook ups too, one for my computer and tv and other stuff too. this thing is definitly awesome for its price of $3400 (i got for 2900 at my local retailer)\n\nThere really arnt any cons to sharing with the runco, both your TV and computer will show up in an extremely high resolution.\n\nheres a link to the kind i bought Runco CL-410 http://www.runco.com/reflection.html

I am assuming that:\nYou want to use your TV as your only monitor.\nYou use Windows XP.\n\nFirst, I would like to warn you that a computer screen image on a TV is not clear and often hard to see. This is caused by the fact that non-HD TVs have considerably less screen resolution than most computer monitors. However, if you only want to watch movies, the picture quality should be the same.\n\nThe red, white, and yellow connections are called composite. If both your computer and TV have them I see no reason why you cannot use a cable to connect them (as long as the connections are going out on your computer and in on your TV). You probably should check your computer’s and/or video card’s owner’s manual to be sure that the connections on your computer are out.\n\nOnce you are sure that you have the correct connections and you have the cables you need; turn off your computer, unplug your monitor (if you have one plugged in), and plug the cables in. Then turn your computer on. I think this will accomplish what you want. \n\nIf you have any questions, feel free to contact me using the link on my Q&A page.\n\nIf this answer doesn’t help, please provide more information such as:\nDo you want to use your TV as your only monitor, have your TV and monitor display identical images, or use a type of dual view? \nWhat OS are you using?\nWhat video card do you use?\nAnd anything else that may be relevant.

Use a DVI to HDMI converter cable plug the HDMI port to the cable box and the DVI port to the monitor.\n \n   720p HDTV has a resolution of 1280x720 or 1366x768. \n\n   1080p has a resolution of 1920x1080 or 1920x1200

right click on desktop and go to properties, then to settings , and move th eslider and press apply.\nbut you want to run an LCD at 60mhz. trust me , it will look perfect. and also find the NATIVE resolution and only run your lcd at the native resolution. on a 19 inch lcd it probably is 1280x1024@60

Yes it can be done, acutally that is the basic working principal of a  LCD, but the clarity of the image is not so good

Either 1280x1024 or 1440x900 are good resolutions. Your  monitor will display almost any resolution but it's recommended resolution is the only one that matters. Either will look good as long as you pick the one recommended for your monitor. \n\n1280x1024 is a much more common recommended resolution.\n\nWhat is more important is that you use a DVI connection (white) vs VGA (blue). This gives you the clearest, uncompressed digital video currently availible. VGA is analog so it is not as clear. If you have it on the back of your computer (usually the case if you have a grahpics card), you'll be good to go. Otherwise, VGA should do the trick.\n\nA good cheapie under $300? Sure, I recommend this one:\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16824116355\nYou can go cheaper but not much better. This one has value, a response time of 5ms (great for movies and gaming- no ghosting. I notice some at 8ms but none at 5ms, which is why I didn't recommend the one at buy.com), good brightness and is well reviewed. Reputable brand and rebate seal the deal.\n\nHope this helps!
