Doctor Stewie 4 Posted October 27, 2013 I would of said that the hdmi port on your laptop is an output port. What model of laptop is it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swizzy 2085 Posted October 27, 2013 Most likely; no... you cannot... because as Doctor Stewie mentioned, it's most likely an output port... so there's nothing that can make it go the other way... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnnyblackout 30 Posted October 28, 2013 I've seen my buddy play it through his laptop before. But it was an alienware, and like Swizzy and Dr. Stewey both said, he had an hdmi INPUT port. You cant find a tv with the standard composite connection? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(most likely not going to work well anyways due tothe speeds required to do so) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
