Hi-I am attempting to connect my laptop to my TV through a hdmi connection.When I connect the cable nothing happens.I have recently carried out the same procedure using Linux Mint and the HDMI connection is recognised without a problem.I have tried to connect through VLC and Mpv with Bunsenlabs with no success.
Is there some setting I need to alter manually to get things working?

Have you tried arandr (gui app to set up monitors)
It’s pre-installed in BL.

Hi-yes tried that.The monitor isnt being recognised when I connect the hdmi from the tv to my laptop.Arandr didnt help because the laptop isnt recognising the tv.

please open a terminal, and enter
dmesg -w
then press Enter a few times (discard what has been printed on screen so far)
then connect the monitor, wait a few secs.
show us what NEW data dmesg shows now.
also:
xrandr
lspci -k | grep -iEA5 'vga|3d|display'
Please use CODE tags for code.
