How do I connect my Laptop to Car DVD Player? Is this possible at all?
What type of video inputs does your car DVD player have? If it has an S-Video or a composite video input, then you can. Things would be easy if your laptop has an S-Video out, because then you can directly connect it to the DVD player (however you'll need a S-Video to Composite adapter connect over Composite). But if your laptop only has a VGA out, then you'll need a VGA to TV converter box. These units are usually powered by normal household AC power, therefore you will also have to find a 12v DC to 110v AC power converter adapter too. BTW Why do you want to do this ?
Computer won t connect to laptop via HDMI cable?
It says says "NO SIGNAL" on the TV with a blue screen. And yes it s on the HDMI setting, and I ve tried all the other ones too (TV, AV, etc) just in case but nope.

I ve tried: - turning the cable around - rebooting both devices - pressing Windows + P - looking in display settings (Windows only detects inbuilt monitor and when I click Detect it doesn t do anything - googling the answer Please help I am so sick of technology failing me for no apparent reason :(
Could I connect a regular Blu-ray player to a laptop, with an adapter? I know HDMI ports are output only, but if I had an adapter that let me plug my Blu-ray into a USB port, would it work?
Well, maybe.What you're talking about, capturing and re-displaying video via HDMI, is certainly possible. But that's uncompressed video. So a basic Blu-ray's worth of HDMI is about a bitrate of 4.9Gb/s. You might technically be able to capture this with USB 3.1 Gen 2 with some heavy buffering, but you'd really need a Thunderbolt port to actually capture it raw.So you're going to compress it. Somewhere around here I have a USB 2.0 HDMI capture device, which does its own on-board AVC encoding and will deliver compressed video to a PC at around 100Mb/s. That's comparable to a professional camcorder, higher bitrate than a Blu-ray’s compressed video. But since you're encoding on the fly in low cost hardware, the AVC encoding is not as good as professionally produced Blu-ray, so you want that extra bandwidth.Only this won't likely work anyway. Your average Blu-ray player outputs HDMI video with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) encryption on it. That HDMI capture device is a recording device, so it will not be legal to decode the HDCP.The right way to watch Blu-ray on a laptop is with a USB-based Blu-ray drive and player software such as Cybersoft PowerDVD or Corel WinDVD. These always bring the original compressed video from the Blu-ray decode it and play it for your laptop screen. You also have full interactive control. And of course, the external drives are much easier to travel with than a full blown Blu-ray player.

Can you hook up a dvd player or a laptop to a hotel tv?
That all depends on what type of TV the hotel has. I've seen some that have a DVD player already connected and some where you can't. I've even been in hotels that didn't have TVs in the rooms. The only way to know for sure is to call the hotel you're planning on staying at and ask them.

Can I link CD/ CD-R/RW Compact Disc Player - PC301B to a laptop and watch movies?
“Can I link CD/ CD-R/RW Compact Disc Player - PC301B to a laptop and watch movies?”Unfortunately not. In your question you give the information that provides your own answer - “CD/CD-r/rw compact disc player.”So the player in question doesn’t even support playing DVD 1st and then how were you going to connect it to a computer since the player only has two connections: AC power and a headphone jack.Now, given the right connections on the computer you could connect the headphone jack to a computer’s audio-input (microphone jack) but it would only transfer/receive audio.If you want to play DVD’s on a laptop computer you will need a special external DVD drive (made for computers) not a DVD player from a TV / Entertainment center; but a DVD drive that has a USB Interface.
