alright, I'm not a complete noob, as that I have been working on this project for the past half a year, but I am finally looking to put it together and one of the biggest conflicts for me has been deciding on exactly what display I want to use.
I am very familar with the options and the pros and cons of each, and and for this cab (my first, I hope to do a fancier less traditional one after), I know I want to go with a television. I have it working, and have had for months.
But it works like a television would. you turn it on or off on the tv or with the remote.
What is the normal procedure for "hardwiring" the actual television power with that of the computer? If i just leave the tv on with no PC, it reads a constant "s-video" or "video 1" or something like that.
I know they make power strips, but im not very familiar with this stuff.
Anyone have an easy fix or or solution on how to make the television more integral?
