Solve : blu-ray and laptop?

Answer»

I recently bought a blu-ray player.  My laptop has an HDMI port, but when I attach the blu-ray player using HDMI cable, nothing HAPPENS.  My computer does not seem to know it is even there.  Is the HDMI port broken?  Or is there a secret to getting the computer to recognize it?  Thanks for any insight/help.  I'm usiing Windows 8.1, my laptop is a Toshiba Satellite C55D-A, and my blu-ray player is a Samsung BD-HM51.  I ALSO downloaded and installed a driver/update from Samsung.

The HDMI port on a laptop is only for output, you cannot CONNECT a Blu-Ray player to it. Quote from: asterose on January 03, 2015, 04:14:13 PM

The blu-ray player has an HDMI output port. You can use this to connect it to a suitable display device (a TV or monitor) with an HDMI input port. Not a laptop or other computer.
