TV connecting question

Postby Jimmy89 » Sun Jun 14, 2015 1:34 pm

Is it possible to get MM1 or MM2 on your TV (from your computer)?

I tried to connect HDMI from my laptop to TV, it didn't work, not surprising would you tell me, but is it possible to make it work with the older cables (not HD) meant to connect computer to TV?

HDMI should work find whether it's a game or anything else. The game isn't relevant, it's your HDMI cables/port that isn't working properly.

Well, what's on my screen appears on TV (browsing Windows, internet and so on), until I load the MM2 exe, it turns to black screen on TV as if there was no incoming data.

The game isn't important, everything you see on the screen gets transmitted though HDMI port too, usually. That's pretty weird, anyway, does it happen also with other games?

Some things just as this one happen on my most recent laptops with the newest OS (windows 7/8 ) where if i take a print screen or a screen shot with Fraps, with any game running, it just ends up showing the desktop or a full black screen on the print, instead of the actual game screen. Maybe turning off some visual aspects in the settings would help, if you're using any of these operative systems? :roll:
