That would be just a monitor, wouldn't it? I thought most of these were just monitors with devices vesa mounted on the back...

Anyway to fix that to become a tv? I once bought a tv that had at one time been used for this purpose. Once it was unplug from the device storing the info it just became a flat tv.
Could you maybe just connect a cheap android box and use it like that?
Or anything with an HDMI plug.
my previous flatmate bought one of these digital menus used and it had a single DP input, he used a Chromecast and a box that extracted HDMI audio via TOSLINK and then a HDMI to DP converter for the panel. It worked great and it was a very cheap solution for the time.
single DP input
That's a contradiction. A single double?
DisplayPort not DoublePoops lol
Actually he got a good deal. Those screens are more expensive because they don't come bundled with ad riddled toiletware, and they often have a longer lifespan to accomodate being on for so long every day. Depends on how much it got used already though.
Yeah, as long as you don't mind a refresh rate of 5 frames a second....
I never thought I'd see the day where people were confused by how to use a TV without the smart features.
Have you forgotten about VCRs? No one knew how to set them up properly and they only had 2 coax jacks.
I set up a vcr when I was 8.
And everyone said you were a genius. Now you probably have depression.
