    I have been using an imac for the last 9 months.

    I was using thunderbolt for full screen playback.

    Howe do I do the same with my HP envy laptop? I tried the hdmi into a plasma set but it just showed the computer screens output.

    I want full screen playback separate off my program monitor.

    Do I need a proper computer monitor?

    Cheers

    Cheers
