Question
Hello,, I was wondering if you could help me with this...

on my laptop there is a VGA port, let's assume that i connected a TV to it.
Is there a piece of code by which I can create a window where the TV screen is viewed. I mean that the operating system ( Windows) desktop can still be viewed and accessed, and at the same time a window exists where the TV is viewed from

Thank you

Answer
As far as I know, this is not possible. The VGA port on your laptop is an output. It does not receive signals. Whatever port you have on your TV is probably an input. It does not transmit signals. If you want to watch TV on your desktop, you can get a TV tuner card. I don't know what you can get for a laptop.
