twangster Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 Welcome to the message boards! There are HDMI ports but on many ships it's difficult or impossible to use them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaArsonist Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 I’m wondering the same thing my nephew is wanting to bring his PlayStation video game to play during late evenings. Is it possible to connect it to the TV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew72681 Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 Most of the time just as in hotel rooms the port is inaccessible, blocked, or under a software lock. 2 hours ago, DaArsonist said: I’m wondering the same thing my nephew is wanting to bring his PlayStation video game to play during late evenings.

RTripp Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 If we are sick or stay in the room, can/how are movies watched? Can I bring my own disks to use? Must I also bring a laptop to watch, or to pay for VOOM stream to a laptop? HOTS June cruise, balcony room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellcee Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 @RTripp you can rent movies from your TV but I remember them being ridiculously expensive - something like $12.95. I downloaded a few shows from Netflix on my Kindle and used Voom to stream. There are no DVD players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psycho and Barb Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 Have heard if you bring a Universal remote control and program it for the TV in your room...You can unlock the HDMI Ports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On older ships yes. On newer ships, assuming you can physically reach the HDMI ports (can't on Anthem) the problem is they run special OS that uses an ethernet connection. The input function is disabled in this mode. There are some work arounds that involve unplugging the ethernet connection and power cycling the TV a few times but unless you are a techie person I wouldn't recommend it.

whitsmom Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 I downloaded stuff from Netflix to watch on my iPad while at the airport, on the plane, and in the cabin. My Grands just download stuff to watch and didn't take any gaming systems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had also taken along a Nintendo Switch and played that at night instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
