Computer keyboard shortcut. Switching between HDMI and laptop screen.
Hi folks.
I'm looking for a way to switch between HDMI and my laptop screen. Preferably a quick keyboard shortcut.
I have my laptop connected to my tv screen always, however, sometimes when i'm gaming on the tv i'll have to disconnect my HDMI to access my laptop screen, or will have to switch sources on my tv which i don't want to have to do. The laptop is a couple of years old and i worry that one day i will mess up the hdmi input pulling it in and out daily. I could probably explain it better but i'm not sure how to :)
I've done some of my own searching but people say to use the tv as a second screen or mirror the laptop screen. I find the light on my laptops screen distracting, why don't i close the laptop when i'm watching tv you say? The hinges are knackered plus when i open the laptop up again it starts mirroring my laptop screen again, it's inconvenient to say the least.
Thank you.
Adam
