Hi guys.

I've recently got a new TV and I've connected my laptop via Hdmi to my Av receiver.

The image is great but I realised there is a slight delay when typing on it. The laptop screen has no delay but the TV is slightly behind.

Is this down to my AV receiver? If so can anyone tell me best way/settings for me using laptop on tv. I want to use it for steam games.

That happens to me too!

There is a slight delay when I stream the football to my TV from my laptop - I think it's something to do with the response time?

The NB Screen is probably allot faster.

I can ask our HQ tech guys to find out - but I feel they will come back with either :

1) Some really long answer to which I do not know what it means
2) Some really simple answer like the response time

I shall do some googling!

Its the same on my old alienware. Its just the the way HDMI works i think! so i just push the screen down. Not used miracast, but thats supposed to be good for streaming real time screens.

I also have no idea why it delays on tellys but not on monitors!
 
Thanks for replies guys. Well last night we used my laptop to display Netflix on my new Sony w705 tv.

Id used the FN key and the f2(?) I think which made the screens swap between laptop only, tv only and both. In the end it seemed to actually catch up with regards to the typing thing and I saw no noticeable difference.

The only issue I had was (and this is probably TV related) when the camera panned on certain scenes in the film the TV showed lines that looked like you get in game on without Vsync. Refresh rate related I guess.

Ill have to look into my TV settings I think.
