Will this adapter serve as a widi receiver for a monitor/TV?

Your TV would have to have a some type of cpu that can support / install the software required by this USB adapter.

I use it from a notebook to monitor and it works great. Seems as long as you have an hdmi out port it should work.

You should not. The adapter has a 15 pin (female) connector on one end. If you are connecting to a monitor... just make sure your cable is 15 pin male...

Basically it will allowed you to connect it to any monitor with HDMi and with included adapter DVI / VGA. Only thing I am not sure about is sound. By the way, you are not limited to just one. I have one of these plus a docking station

this adaptor converts from usb to RS232 serial. If that is what you are trying to do it will work well. It is not for VGA as that is a video format.

This device only converts HDMI to VGA, so if your wireless adapter has an HDMI output, yes. This device does not receive wireless signals.

Don't know, since i'm running on win7. As long as your laptop supports WIDI, it should work.

Yes, if your monitor has a HDMI connector. If you have the standard pin connector, you will need to purchase an adapter.

If the receiver has any of the following outputs: RF, component, red/blue/green or HDMI... then you should be just fine.

No. This adapter is for connecting a laptop that has an HDMI (output) port to a regular monitor that has a VGA (input) port.

I'm using mine for a monitor. I have a Dell laptop and had to push Fn and F8 to get it to work. Thank goodness for google. Don't know if I'd have found that info anywhere else. Folks at Vizio didn't know.

Hello Joe, Absolutely No. This adapter is only for connecting to a HDMI port of laptop /computer. It need a operation system and doesn't work in opposite way!Wish to service you very soon,Battery1inc 050715

Yes. I have the same computer, and it connects to any external monitor/output device.

No. This will go to the monitor VGA input alright but hooks up to the computers USB port. You need to be running Windows.

If you have an empty USB port, then this will work. I hooked up a monitor from my Dell laptop and it works fine.

Should be, but check the dvi port on your tv. Could be female. Then you'll want a male adapter.

If you have a laptop that is Intel WiDi capable, the ScreenCast adapter will receive a signal from your laptop regardless of the operating system. So if you have a laptop with WiDi capabilities you need to go to the Intel website, download and install the WiDi software and if it will run on your computer and shows you a screen that is searching for WiDi devices, even though you don't have one yet, you're good. When you do have an adapter, it will connect to your laptop and you will have HDMI wireless to your TV.So the question is!!!, will Win 8 run the Intel WiDi software. If it does, your good to go.
