Questions & Answers

Will the audio cable included in this package reach the audio output port on my laptop, which is on the opposite side of the vga port?

The audio cable is 50 cm (20 in) long according to the product description, but mine is 37 in (94 cm) long. Either of these options should be sufficient for reaching around a laptop.

Is it possible to connect the vga to my computer and the hdmi to my monitor? Is this a viable solution?

That is the ONLY way to use this product properly.br>br>A source (typically, an older computer's VGA output, but it could be anything else that outputs with a VGA connector), as well as (optionally) an audio input (via 3.0). This device accepts a 5mm "headphone jack sized" coaxial plug and is powered by a USB cable (which does nothing else but provide power). The device combines the video and audio (if available) into a single HDMI signal. br>br>The output signal should be identical to what the computer provides. Other than the "signal format," nothing has been changed. That is, the resolution, color depth, and "refresh rate," among other things, should be identical to what your computer produces. (Note. However, if you use a resolution or refresh rate that isn't supported by this device, you might run into problems, so read the spec.

Is it necessary to use a usb 3 port for power or can any usb port suffice?

The 3. The 0 "SS" port allows for ten times faster data transfer. It shouldn't matter which one you choose for power. 0 and 3.

Will an adapter cable work between a 2005 Dell Pentium 3 and a 2015 Samsung smart hub television?

Your Dell Pentium 3 must have a VGA output, right? If you have HDMI inputs on your Samsung TV, this adapter cable should work.

OMG! Works! I use a Toshiba laptop with a screen size of 17 inches
5/5

I also have an Elements TV that isn't a smart TV, and it doesn't have an HDMI port. I wanted to use the Amazon Fire Stick to watch Comcast Xfinity, but there isn't an app for it. So I bought it to connect my laptop to my TV. Comcast is attempting to charge $60 for the installation of a basic box. This is not going to work. So far, so good. I can watch it on my laptop, and the sound comes through my TV speakers. It still plays on my laptop, and I can hear it even if my TV isn't turned up loud enough. This cord is functional and simple to connect.

False advertising is a type of deception that occurs when a business advertises 1920x1200 pixels aren't supported
3/5

They claim to support 1920x1200 resolution, as evidenced by the images I've provided. They only support a resolution of 1920x1080 in reality. Both Linus and Windows 10 were used to test this. Both computers perform admirably when connected directly to HDMI or via the monitor's VGA input.

Connect it to the power source
5/5

It simply does the job. Take an old computer with you on the road and leave your expensive computer at home. Because my older laptop lacks an HDMI port, I purchased this adapter to connect it to my LCD television. This adapter performs admirably. There is no need for an additional power source. The power is provided by a USB port, and the audio is provided by the computer's headphone jack. With crisp, full-screen displays, computer VGA output to HDMI works perfectly. I'm really happy with how things are going so far. My old laptop has been given a new lease on life by allowing me to show slide shows of photos, Powerpoint presentations, and demonstrations of web surfing. I'll be able to take my old machine on the road while leaving my expensive machine at home, and I'll be able to use HDMI for professional presentations. When accessing outside networks, I use my old machine to create an "air gap," which protects my main machine from infection. br>Five out of five stars from a satisfied customer.

So far, everything has worked out
3/5

However, after a short period of use, the VGA plug becomes extremely hot. Captain's Log, January 20, 2021, 6: 47:47 CA, I just installed it and it seems to be working so far, but the VGA plug part gets very hot. br>All you have to do is plug your VGA into your laptop, then your USB into your laptop, and finally your sound jack into the laptop's earphone port. NOT: Do not plug in the sound jack if you want the sound to come from the laptop. The other end, which is HDMI, should be plugged into the back of your television. I used [HDMI 1], then turned on the laptop, and finally the television. Then you looked for the setting for switching the live TV to HDMI 1, and that was it. As a test, I used it for about 15 minutes before closing the laptop and turning it off. and then change the channel to live TV, which is just regular TV. On a 4k television, you could watch Channel 4 NBC, or 2 CBS, and so on. And when I graved the VGA part, it felt extremely hot, to the point of being unbearable. However, it has done its job thus far, and I am concerned that it will become too hot or damage my old laptop. It isn't my hero laptop, in the sense that it isn't one that I use frequently, but I don't want to break it. If the VGA malfunctions or causes damage to my laptop or television, I will definitely return and inform you. I just wish there was a way to safely cool the VGA plug down like 50% down like 50% down like 50% down like 50% down like 50% down like 50% down like 50% down like 50% Because I'm concerned about having a hot VGA plug.

Perfecto! PERFECT! Why, oh why, haven't I done this sooner? Because the Samsung TV is 46 inches, the resolution was initially messed up
5/5

My computer is newer. On the screen, the edges were slightly cut off, but I was able to correct this using the TV settings. I can't tell you how happy I am with my new "monitor," which is the size of a large a$$. having the ability to easily switch between PC and Mac Roku. This is fantastic! The audio and the resolution are both excellent. I'm currently in the same boat. Take a look at the image I've attached. I blacked out any personal information. Although it is a little hazy, That is NOT a strange product; it is me failing miserably at taking photos with my phone.

Beware! There are no instructions and there is an incomplete description
3/5

I'm sure this is a perfect adapter for a monitor that sits 2 feet away from the central processing unit, allowing the adapter to be plugged into the monitor, speakers, and the UPS connection it requires for power, but the description doesn't mention any of that, so I can't use it. Even my tech is baffled as to why such an adapter would require so many extra connections. Furthermore, there are no instructions included with the item, so no one can figure out how to use it. around - if such a thing exists Because my CPU is 5 feet away from the monitor, I'll have to return it and replace it with an adapter that doesn't require all of these "special" connections. That has caused me to miss another week of being able to use my monitor. THINGS ARE NOT GOING WELL IN THIS PLACE!.

It works after a few minutes of playing with the TV settings
4/5

I had everything I needed to get VGA-ready. out on the computer to connect to an HDMI source In order to use a form factor as a game emulator for the kids, it was shown on TV. If you're having problems, make sure your USB cable is plugged into a PC port. The VGA plug contains a small converter board that must be powered in order to function. I deducted one star because I had to fiddle with the TV settings to get it to work properly. Although the PC can handle any resolution, I had to set our TV display to "best fit" rather than "16:9" because the PC can't handle it. It had to be cut down to 9" in order to fit the screen properly; otherwise, the edges were clipped off. I've used a VGA cable to connect the PC to other TVs. The screens fit perfectly without any alterations thanks to a VGA cable (because those TVs had VGA ports). So I have to believe that the analog to digital converter board in this adapter is doing something to make it a little strange in terms of screen-time. fitting. I was, however, able to work- Everything is fine now that we've gotten to the bottom of the problem.
