No it doesn't attach to a TV! It only has 2 ports 1 for the charger and 1 for ear plugs!

It's just the monitor that has to connect to a DVD player. You can buy the one that is a combo with the DVD built in. That way you want have to buy the separte DVD player.

It comes with an optical cable to connect with the corresponding outlet on your television. That allows you to send DVD and Blu-Ray audio through the speaker. Unless your DVD player can also play CDs, running that audio through your speaker could be a problem.

Yes you can as I already tried it just to make sure it worked out of the box quickly so I didn't go through unplugging my old DvD player if it didn't work. If your new monitor has built in speakers you will get sound and video. If you do not have speakers then you will get no sound,I believe there is something you can get to have the audio go out to computer or something else but I don't know what that is offhand.

I think if it's not a HD player it wont read it. At least that's what the manual says, and other threads that I've read. That goes for DVD's too. If it's not a HD player it won't read it and won't play it. I believe that this unit isn't HD.

Yes, this tv can be connected to a DVD player. Mine is connected to my cable box and the DVD players to the cable box, but you can connect directly to the TV.

I have a dvd player in my car which takes audio/video input. Does this thing have external outputs?

I don't connect camera to TV for playback. I burn DVD'S and they do playback in full screen. =)

It doesn't have conversation to HDMI. What it does is route the selected HDMI input to a single HDMI output. It only outputs the video however. It strips off the selected HDMI audio, processes it and sends it to the attached speakers. So if you have a TV attached, it will display the selected video but won't play the audio. But if the unit is turned off it will pass both audio and video from a single active HDMI on to the HDMI output.

no it does not come with a DVD player. It is just the speakers. You will need to by a receiver for it.

This is just a monitor. It does not have a TV tuner or any kind of signal generator. It does have an regular size HDMI input and will display anything coming into the HDMI such as a DVD player, a tablet (that has an HDMI out - if you have a mini-HDMI out just get a mini X regular cable), or other device. Hope this helps!

Hi Tito, We returned the Philips DVD Player because it was not compatible with our TV (we have an older TV). However, the DVD Player that we got also did not have a manual (hard to believe!!). We looked up the model number on line and had to print the whole thing. I guess that's what I would suggest for you to do. Not very professional of the companies selling these products, but what can we do? Hope this helps.

It has HDMI so, yes you could hook it directly to a DVD player; but there are no speakers.

Not the TV, since TV doesn't have an output. Rather a satellite reviver or DVD player or some other source of the signal.

No. Garbage in = garbage out. You must connect your DVD player using an HDMI cable in order to get an HDMI output to your TV.

I have this, it is an HDMI output, so you can show the picture on another TV. It is not an input.
