I have this pin connector on the back of my tv and it says for HDTV only input 3. I am currently using the 3 component input ( Y Pb Pr ) input 1 and I heard that I would get much better resolution using the 15 pin connector. How do I hook up an HDMI cable to this connector to get the most out of my tv? Do they make an adapter or would I be be wasting my time using this input?
You are wasting your time if the component you're hooking it up to is not High Definition... Tv can't produce any better quality from connector to connector you have to up the type of signal being input.

You can not use HDMI cable with this set up.
this is from the LG website about that TV. - Rear, 2 x Composite video/audio input (RCA phono x 3) - Side, 2 x S-Video input (4 pin mini-DIN), 1 x USB (4 pin USB Type A), 1 x Audio line-out (RCA phono x 2), 2 x Component video input (RCA phono x 3), 2 x Audio line-in (RCA phono x 2), 1 x Digital audio output (optical) (TOSLINK), 1 x Digital audio output (coaxial) (RCA phono), 3 x HDMI input (19 pin HDMI Type A), 1 x RGB input (15 pin HD D-Sub (HD-15)), 1 x Audio line-in (Mini-phone stereo 3.5 mm), 1 x Serial (9 pin D-Sub), 1 x Remote control (Mini-phone 3.5 mm)
You need a VGA cable (15 pin) connected from PC (monitor out) to the PC input on the HDTV (15 pin) this is for the video. For the audio, connect from PC to HDTV, audio cable, either 3.5mm from earphone out on PC to HDTV 3.5mm audio input (next to PC VGA input) and also be sure to set PC screen resolution to compatible output for HDTV like 1024 X 768 or 600 x 800 etc.

The problem of course is not the computer since you communicate well when using the Samsung TV. The problem is your Sampo. The Video Ports are:
Composite Input (Shared w/ S-Video) RCA-pin x 2 S-Video Input (Shared w/ Composite) Mini DIN 4-pin x 2 Component Video Input RCA-pin x 2 Sets (Y/CB/CR, Y/PB/PR auto detect) DVI Input (with HDCP) DVI-D 24 pin x 1 RGB Input D-Sub 15-pin x 1
If the RGB WILL NOT COMMUNICATE, I suggest you try RCA/DVI/ or shared composite. You may need adapters, but with so many options, just try other methods.
There is a PC/DTV RGB input area with two audio jack inputs. The input is a standard 15 pin PC jack. Hook it up to your PC video card input. You can get the audio cable from Best Buy or a electronics store...split RCA on one end and the headphone jacks on the other to your PC. Then select the TV/Video source button on your remote until you see PC/DTV YPbPr screen appear. It will search for the signal, find your PC and display the screen. You may have to go to MENUE on your remote to adjust the HDTV (1080i) frequency.... an option that only appears if there is something hooked up to the PC/DTV RGB signal input.
The only HD input on that monitor that is true HD is the 15 pin VGA input connector. It can be set in the TV menu to be used as an RGB input OR a color difference component input (Y, RY, BY). You will need a 15 pin connector that breaks out into 3 sperate cables; the ones I've seen break out into 3 BNC connectors and then you have to use dapators to convert them to standard RCA pulgs for connection to most consumer devices.
