Jonathan Y asked:


We recently bought an HDTV and I’m going to buy an HDMI cable. Do we need to buy an upconverter for watching movies, or could we use one of our laptops instead, which both have DVD players? Will a PC have lesser quality than watching the movie through an upconverter? Are there any special things we’d need to do to set the resolution with the PC? Thanks!
