HDMI is a video output standard. It is often used to connect to a monitor or a tv. It carries a high definition video signal as well as an audio signal so you dont have to hook up more than 1 cable if your monitor/tv has built in speakers.

An HDMI port, or a High Definition Multimedia Interface port, is used to present a true high definition picture on a screen as well as high quality sound. HDMI ports are often found on LCD or plasma flat panel televisions which can produce an HD picture.

Is it possible to watch films from a laptop on a tv using a USB to HDMI cable?

Your laptop should either have an HDMI port or a VGA port for using an external monitor. Once established which port your laptop has you will need either an HDMI to HDMI or VGA to HDMI cable to connect to your TV. The picture quality should not be affected by either as you will be using the laptop's inbuilt graphics and all you are doing is changing the visual display from screen to TV, which should be simply done by pressing the correct function key for external display once your cable is connected.


Does VAIO PCG 8X2L have HDMI connection?

The PCG 8X2l is no longer a current model and it is unlikely to have an HDMI port. However, it may have a DVI port. DVI is compatible with HDMI in that the video signals are identical. DVI does not support audio, so there will be no audio on the port. Buying a DVI to HDMI connector will provide an HDMI connection to link to a television. *check that the model has a DVI port before buying the cable. Alternatively, it is possible to buy a USB based video display. This provide an external screen port and can be DVI or HDMI. They are not expensive and should provide the right output to link to an HDMI input.
