NEW YORK — You have good reason to be skeptical when someone says millions of ordinary television viewers are about to start surfing the Internet on the living room's electronic hearth.
We've heard that Web-on-your-TV convergence promise for more than a decade, with ambitious efforts to make it happen including AOL TV and WebTV Networks. Each time, the optimists have been wrong.

This year might be different.
Big TV manufacturers including Sony, Samsung, LG, Panasonic and Vizio say that they're poised to revolutionize television this Christmas shopping season: They're about to launch the first major marketing push for a new generation of sets that can easily integrate Web content with traditional TV news and entertainment – without the fuss of connecting the TV to a set-top box.

"When we all open up the newspapers on Jan. 1, and they talk about the hot items from the holiday selling season, Internet-connected TVs are going to be at the top of the list," says Randy Waynick, senior vice president at Sony's Consumer Group.

Clicker Aims to Be the Path to TV Online
The Web is increasingly filled with television shows, but finding them can be hard. Clicker, a well-financed startup, believes it can help. On Thursday, the company is rolling out its service, Clicker.com, which it calls a “TV Guide for the Web.”

“If you created TV Guide in 2009 instead of 1953, you’d create something like this,” said Jim Lanzone, Clicker’s chief executive, who previously served as the chief executive of Ask.com, the No. 4 search engine.

Mr. Lanzone said finding a show is not that hard if you know where it is. For example, if you are looking for an NBC, Fox or Disney show, search Hulu and you’re likely to find it if it is available. But video search engines that work across the Web and return thousands of clips for every search are not very effective, he said.

How to watch internet video on your TV

I thought it would be helpful to describe how to hook your PC or laptop up to your television.  There are also come TV boxes at CDRKing that you can buy referenced later in the article. 




If you have an older PC or laptop, and an older TV, most likely what you need is an S-video cable.


If you have a newer PC or laptop and an older TV, DVI to S-video is more likely what you need.


Lastly, if you have a new PC or laptop, and a new TV (like a flat screen LCD TV) – you probably need a DVI to HDMI cable.




Hooking up your PC to your TV can be a pain. Here is another article I found about internet set top boxes.


One that looks promising that I didn’t mention before is the “vunow“. The vunow claims to offer NBC content, but I couldn’t figure out where to actually buy it – so it may not be released yet.


It seems like someone just needs to get this hardware done so we can make cable and broadcast TV obsolete.    Read the original article here http://hi-interest.blogspot.com/2009/10/will-internet-tv-replace-cable-tv.html


Your Laptop

Belkin CableMost people don’t know that you can actually connect most laptops to your TV and display your screen in full-sized glory. Once you’ve done this there is no need to stream content to another device, or have any go between, you are simply turning your television into a giant monitor to display whatever content it is you feel the need to show, whether it be movies, music videos, YouTube or anything else. The only drawback to this method is it pretty much sacrafices your computer to do nothing other than showing the media you’ve selected.

To do it you’ll usually need a S-Video cable, and something like the Belkin produced cable I pictured here. You plug the 2.5 mm end of that cable into your earphone jack and the audio ends into your TV input. You then run the S-Video between the corresponding jacks and switch your video output to an external source. Each computer is slightly different in how it does these steps, so make sure to consult your setup guide.

My TV only has a coaxial cable input:
    If you have an older TV with only a coaxial cable input, you can purchase an "RF Modulator" in the electronics section of your local Walmart or Target store for about $20. This device will provide you with both S-Video and RCA Composite (yellow, red and white) inputs.
You can purchase an RF Modulator at your local Walmart or Target for under $20.  This device allows your older television to accept standard RCA (yellow, white and red) inputs.

It's time to bring the Internet into your living room.  Almost all new televisions available for sale today are of the flat panel, high-definition variety. You just can't find the old tubes anymore. HDTVs are also commonly known as LCD or plasma TVs depending on the screen construction. Most of these new HDTVs are equipped with either HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) and/or "PC Input." PC Input is another word for the standard computer VGA monitor connection. Almost all PCs have VGA outputs, and many new PCs are now equipped with HDMI outputs. So if you are considering the purchase of a new HDTV, make sure it has a "PC Input" jack. And if you are considering the purchase of a new PC, make sure it has an HDMI output. You can easily connect your PC/laptop/notebook computer to your HDTV with our HDMI cable or specialty VGA with Audio cable and use it as a high-resolution monitor. If you have an older TV you can probably use our specialty S-Video with Audio to Composite cable. If your PC has an Internet connection, you will now have the Internet on your TV. Our HDMI and VGA cables both support high definition video (1920 x 1080 pixels) while our S-Video cables support up to 704 x 480 pixels (standard definition). All of our specialty PC to TV cables also include built-in stereo audio, so you won't need a separate cable for sound. Please note: you don't need a set-top-box (STB) such as the Roku Netflix Player or Apple TV to watch movies on your TV. Simply connect your PC/laptop/notebook computer to your TV with our inexpensive cable and you won't be limited in where you can go or what you can do.  http://pctvcables.com/select-your-pc-to-tv-cable.html


 - Click on Start, Control Panel.

- Click on Display

- Click on Settings

- Slide the "Screen resolution" area slider bar toward Less until the setting reads 800 x 600. OK, you may not like how your screen looks at this setting after usig high-res settings, but you'll certainly enjoy your DVD on your TV!!! You can always change the res back when not playing DVDs.

- Click Apply

- Press the FN key and your computer's corresponding "F-number" key. For instance, on some Toshiba laptops you press the FN+F5 simultaneously four times to get the TV-Out setting. The "FN" key is a short-cut key on most laptop keyboards. Note, the combination keys that you may have to press depend on your laptop. Here's a brief list: Acer Fn+F3; Dell Fn+F8; Fujitsu Fn+F5; Gateway Fn+F3; HP Fn+F5; IBM Fn+F1 or +F3, +F7 +F8; NEC Fn+F3; Panasonic Fn+F2; Samsung Fn+F4 or F5 or F6; Sharp Fn+F5; Sony Fn+F7; and Toshiba Fn+F5 or +F7.

- Start playing your movie or presentation.

- There may be additional adjustments that may be required. If the TV display is shifted to the right with a black vertical bar on the left side you will have to perform additional settings. Joshua T. has the following suggestions: "The computer runs Windows XP Pro and has a "Radeon IGP 345M", which I believe is made by ATI. Under 'Display Properties', 'Settings', 'Advanced', 'Displays', click the "TV" button, then 'Adjustments' tab. There you will find options to change the vertical/horizontal size and position. Once you have switched over to use the tv you can simply adjust these settings while you watch the display on the television to get it looking the way you like."
