“My laptop and my television have the same port. Therefore I assume I could hook them together and watch video that's coming through my laptop on my television. Would that be a correct assumption?”

• Yes you are correct and I do the same thing myself. If volume is still coming from your computer, go to your volume preferences and choose "External Speakers" which should also show some ID of the TV you are connected to.

• It should work as you mentioned. Your laptop should automatically switch to the correct television resolution when the hdmi cable is connected. If your laptop does not automatically switch to your television then you will need to play around with the laptop display settings to get it to out put to your television.
