Can I use this cable to project images/ videos from my windows surface rt to my smart TV?

I believe you should be able to as long as you have the correct mini to regular slots. I myself use the mini HDMI to HDMI for my graphics card to TV. I regularly stream movies, play dvd and blu-rays and game with the afore mentioned cord. this has been a great cord for my PC and TV. after reading other comments make sure you need a mini HDMI to HDMI cord. you may need a micro hdmi to HDMI cord. check your equipment out because it WILL make a difference! best of luck!

I don't know a lot about the Surface rt and from what I have found is that the surface rt has a MICRO SIZE hdmi port and the cable your are asking about has a MINI connector.The answer would be NO...Check Amazon for a MICRO SIZE

Because I'm uncertain of the hardware the Windows Surface tablets have, I don't know. It would have to have an HDMI mini port. I do know that HDMI mini is not the same as HDMI micro, however. I suggest finding out this specification on the tablet/s first.I hope this points you in the right direction.

Dear Adrian, Thank you for your question regarding our Mini HDMI to HDMI cable. From our Research, the Windows Surface Rt uses a Micro USB port, so this cable is not compatible. You would need the Micro HDMI to HDMI cable.Please contact us at service@bluerigger.com if you have any additional questions. Thanks, BlueRigger LLCservice@bluerigger.com

This cable is named inappropriately. If your surface uses the same type of adapter that today's cell phones use (they call these mini HDMI) you actually need the Blue Rigger Micro mini HDMI. I know, you would think the two minis would be the same but what Blue Rigger calls mini is too big for the HDMI connector on a cell phone or a Kindle. I hope I am making sense to you.

I don't own a surface rt, but according to the Microsoft forums, it looks like you might need to buy an adapter from Microsoft in order for it to work. There are Micro, Mini and standard HDMI fittings. It loos like yours is a Micro, not a Mini. I also own that BlueRigger for my tablet to my smart TV, that is the Micro to Standard version. The easier solution for me was the wireless ChromeCast at 35 bucks, also sold by Amazon. You have to use Google's Chrome Browser, which I use on my windows 8 Laptop to stream photos and videos as well.

I needed to connect to a projector and it works great. I don't see why it wouldn't work with w roku.

Note that there are two separate VGA adapters, one for the Surface RT/Surface 2 (Microsoft part # W7S-00001), the other is for the Surface Pro/Pro 2. (Microsoft part # F7U-00015). Descriptions tend not to be particularly clear on the above point so make sure that you're getting the adapter right for your model. They are _not_ interchangeable. The item to which you've posted this query is part # W7S-00001 for the Surface RT/Surface 2. Hope this helps. Cheers, Christopher

I have not tried to use it with my Surface RT tablet but my guess is it won't be compatible

I use it for the Acer Iconia W700-6691 11.6-Inch 64 GB Tablet which has a micro hdmi, it works fine with it, check if your surface rt tablet has a micro hdmi socket

I used the cabled to reformat tablets that didnt have the OS on them. Not sure if the attaching the cam is going to work though becuase of the drivers you would need to support it. For the price its worth a shot and im sure you could always use the cable for something else later on.

I use it with my original Surface RT but I find that the picture quality isn't perfect. Maybe if using a mouse you could set the TV as the main screen and get a better picture.

Yes, this cable is meant to work with the Surface 2 (not with the Surface PRO 2)

I don't think you can - this is a VGA/HDMI connector/converter - even at that it did not work for my VGA Desktop Computer Monitor port to Smart TV HDMI.

The item provided Ethernet Port to my Surface RT, and this device is very limited and restrictive to what it detects. In the other hand HP provides a powerful website for upgrades and updates. I believe you should not have any problem. This item was the only one of its kind that was recognized by the Surface RT

Sorry Joykat, this won't work with both. You won't really be able to find a single adapter to work with both because - if memory serves - a surface RT has a mini hdmi port and the type of port on an iMac varies by model. If you know what model you have, I might be able to help you out a little bit more.

I want to play videos on my surface pro 4. Will this device work for that purpose?

Yes it does. I use it regularly with my Surface RT to display its screen on my TV.

NokiaFanToo, the question was about a Surface Pro, not a Surface RT. There is a similar $10 adapter by Cable Matters that states it works with the Surface Pro but not the Surface RT. I hope this is the case with this PNY model as I am about to order it instead of the Cable Matters adapter. P.S. I will be using this on a Surface Pro 2. Also, I have a Moshi adapter originally purchased for my MacBook Pro that works perfectly with my Surface Pro 2, both audio and video.

Not sure about that. Haven't tried that. However it works good projecting things from my PC to my TV.

It is not a dumb question. I have used the cable (or a series of conversion dongles and cables) for a similar function at the office and it worked. The key is that you need a DVI-to-DP converter, and the cable does act as one of these.
