Can I connect my laptop to it with an HDMI cord and watch movies and Netflix?

Yes. Some of the HD on Netflix isn't available on computers though, because of lame licenses with the studios. So you'll get more HD content if you use a Roku or BluRay player for Netflix.

You can connect your laptop via hdmi or other cable. I do not think it can be done wirelessly.

yes you can. you'll be able to use its android features (watching movies, youtube, etc.) by connecting it to the tv using hdmi cable.

I'm not sure about that. I only connect my laptop to the TV to play Netflix and things like that. Really I use the TV as a monitor I guess you could say. Sorry I couldn't answer your question.

I have the 47LN5700 and you can use the HDMI connection to connect your laptop to the TV and show what ever you are showing on the laptop on the TV. I load Netflix on my laptop and see the movie on both the laptop and the TV at the same time. Hopes that answers your question. If not be more specific with your question.

Yes but you must download and install the netflix app and you must also have sufficient space and system resources.

I just bought an HP Pavilion dv7-4270us which has an hdmi port. I want to hook it up to watch stream Netflix to a Toshiba 40RV525R which also has an hdmi port. What else do I need to do or be concerned about? How much should I spend on this cable - there are some really cheap ones out there.

Yes. I usually plug and hdmi cable into my laptop and play through speakers but either way works.

I use it to watch Netflix on a TV over HDMI. It works just fine, just make sure you have a decent WiFi connection. YouTube is also fine.

Ours is hooked up to our computer, thru hdmi cord. We watch netflix, hulu, you name it! Be sure your video card is substantial enough to run it.

Yes you can. I just setup mine last night, netflix is available in media center, you just need to sign in. Make sure you have silverlight installed from microsoft, or it won't work.

No. This device is to connect the older style vga connections, such as those found on older laptops, to an HDMI connector found on newer tv's. I used it to allow me to send the picture on my older laptop (that has a VGA OUT) to my new, larger flat screen (that only has an hdmi input). IF you have netflix on your laptop this device will let you send it via your VGA OUT jack to your HDMI TV.

Yes, if u have the HDMI outlet on your laptop, make sure that is a regular HDMI but not the minor one
