and though a picture came up, it was grainy! not so bad when i actually played the video (though quality wasn't GREAT, ) but when using it as a PC monitor, the screen had lines up and down it,
I assumed the big screen would just project what's on the laptop screen, am i wrong? or are the two devices just not compatible?

Change the resolution on the display setting for the TV. (probably output 2)
Sorry that wasn't clear, set the resolution for the output to the TV, on your display settings on the laptop. (Shouldn't have to do anything for the TV, provided you are on the correct HDMI channel)

No, TVs aren't as good as monitors, Play with it, but keep the res between about 1024x768 up to about 1920 × 1080. Any higher will be too much for the TV and you'll lose the edges.
