Hello,
I can't see on my brand new Panasonic 48 TV what’s on my PC.
I managed to set up the Wi-Fi network and the Internet connection. The software update proves everything is fine. With the LG TV, it was easy; you just had to go to SOURCES and choose what you wanted.
I should add that in the nVidia control panel, the Panasonic TV is recognized. I hope someone can help me. THANK YOU in advance. Armand.

Hello

Screen transfer from PC to video projector or TV, different actions

Turn on the TV or projector; the video connection will be VGA, S-video, composite (yellow RCA), or HDMI, depending on what you have, and you need to add an audio connection, 2 RCA, optical, etc... except for HDMI and Wi-Fi
You can use an adapter from SCART to S-video, composite, and audio on older TVs
There are several ways:
Start with this simple method for recent PCs running Windows 7 and 8: press the "Windows" key + "P" key and choose your option "PC only, projector (or TV only)" and the duplicate function, which is not useful here
Or another method:

On your PC, right-click on the desktop
Screen resolution
Click on "Show the desktop only on 1 or on 2"
Apply
The image is then projected onto the projection screen and the computer's screen goes black
Click on the projection screen or TV by moving the mouse to "Keep changes"
Ok

Repeat the process in reverse to retrieve the image on the computer.
Or turn off the projector, the image will automatically return (after a few seconds) to the PC monitor

For audio, except with HDMI connection, you go through your PC's sound card output to feed your TV or an amplifier
You need to align the display resolutions to the maximum of the least performing of the two screens

Or explained this way:
1. VGA and DVI ports
2. To open Control Panel, click the Start button, then click Control Panel.
3. In the search box, type projector, then click Connect to a projector.
(To use a keyboard shortcut instead of Control Panel, press Windows key + P).
4. Select how you want to display your Desktop:
PC only (this displays your Desktop only on your computer's screen);
Duplicate (this displays your Desktop on your computer's screen and on a projector);
Extend (this extends your Desktop from your computer's screen to a projector);
Projector only (this displays your Desktop only on a projector)
For a TV screen, the same method applies

Hello,
After extensive research and forum consultations, and despite the responses from Panasonic, I thought I had bought a faulty TV.
I have now found THE solution and I regret not having thought of it much earlier.
On the remote control, there is a dual button labeled TV-AV:
And there it is, by pressing the AV part of this button, you access a section that turns out to be more or less like the SOURCES section on LG TVs.
Everything I could still explain wouldn't add anything more, except that you should always treat new equipment as if you didn’t know it at all.
That’s my conclusion as I mark my topic as RESOLVED. THANK YOU to those who tried to help me.
Armand.

Hello Glandu.
I would like a "simple" and personalized response based on the problem I am submitting and without any further development because my issue is related to the Panasonic TV as I mentioned. But thank you anyway.
Armand.

If you are convinced that this comes from your TV, that's another matter; my presentation is a reminder of the different possibilities for connecting the PC and the TV depending on the connections.
