Sometimes technology frustrates me no end.
I have been playing with a Sanyo Xacti VPC-HD2000 HD video camera and it comes with a docking station which has an HDMI connection.
I thought if I docked the camera and connected the docking station via HDMI to my TV I could watch the video and see the photographs I had taken on my TV.
Well that’s what I thought what would happen.
Well no it didn’t, even though the cables were connected, the playback was still on the camera and not on the TV.
I then thought, it might be because the dock was not connected to a power supply, I did that and still the TV remained blank, though this time the camera went blank too!
So I went to read the manual, which was to be honest no use at all. It gave no additional information, as according to it, what I was doing was what I should be doing. As for the troubleshooting guide, well that was not very insightful.
Even the Google failed me with finding a solution.
Going to try with a different TV and see if that helps. However it shouldn’t be this complicated and this challenging, it should just work!
