Try hooking up to the tv first. The computer should recognize the recommended format and resolution. If that don't work then it could be your graphics card on your computer is outdated if your tv is a newer model.

Can't help you I don't use one of these splitters. I use 1 in and 4 out from my laptop to 4 TVs I also use a 4 in and 2 out with audio extractor Both had to be programed with my CP to work properly.

I have not experienced the problem you describe. Have you tried connecting the computer directly to the TV; or connecting the computer to the splitter input and either splitter output to the TV (with and without the connection to the monitor)?As the error message indicates, I suspect that the video format of the computer is not a format that is recognized by your TV. Good Luck

Just purchase an HDMI to DVI or DP adapter, problem solved. Or use one of those outputs on one of the monitors.

the PC I'm using has DVI and HDMI outputs but, I only used DVI. It still is a digital signal. I will have to try HDMI out with a converter. I also used mini display port out of a macbook pro both vga and DVI.

I have just tried that and it worked. I normally use a HDMI input but my TV comes with a DVI input connector so I tried the DVI input and there was no problem. My suggestion is that you 1) turn off the HDMI splitter and all devices connected to the HDMI splitter, 2) turn on all devices connected to the HDMI splitter and then 3) turn on the HDMI splitter.

Won't work. Turns hdmi output to VGA. Unless cpu has hdmi output and tv has VGA input.

There are some out there and I had the same problem. I was told by a computer website that display port was a little higher than hdmi and it wouldn't work correctly so I just use display port to display port

Thats strange. I bought the same TV from Best Buy, but i have 4 HDMI ports and 3 USB. Check with them again and see if they can replace it. If that does not work, you can buy HDMI splitters which will allow you to connect multiple HDMI devices with 1 port.

There shouldn't be any trouble connecting to the display through HDMI. Make sure all the settings on your computer are correct and the display mode is set to HDMI. If all else fails, you may have a faulty unit.

So I have run into this before but I am not an expert. Some monitors will only accept 1080P or 720P. My source was 420P something like that so one of the monitors called it out of range. I was using a image one surgical camera that only had SDI output that once converted was 420 or 480P output and that didn't work with one of my Monitors. The TV monitor probably accepts a larger range of HDMI input. Scott

I only tested it to connect my laptop to a computer monitor with a display port. I am not sure if your HDTV has such a port. It probably has a HDMI port for which you need a different cable. In any case the cable quit working only after a few months. I have thrown it away.

I have not had that problem, mine has worked fine but is used for more of a TV, look in the settings, there may be a power setting in the menu on the monitor, otherwise turn off the computer and monitor and make sure the DVI connection is good on both sides and try again.Try a different DVI cable as well, as the other commenter recommended.

There is actually an hdmi port on the monitor, so I'm just using a regular hdmi cable from my computer, works great.

If you look at the specifications and video output HDMI looks like the single source. Only one HDMI output along with audio digital/optical and no component video or legacy technology. You can however obtain an adapter cable, HDMI to DVI or an adapter from HDMI to 15-pin VGA video if your TV supports DVI or VGA. No guarantees in compatibilities as it's easier to up convert signals to HDMI VS down converting.

I just got my converter today and it is not working! I have an ASUS laptop with HDMI out and I am trying to connect it to my older VGA monitor.

You likely have to switch your TV over to an alternate source- like HDMI 1 or 2 so that your TV knows it's getting the feed from an alternate source other than cable. Hope that helps?

It looks like you can output 2 digital signals and 1 analog signal. For my case, I have 2 DisplayPorts and 1 VGA monitor working when hook up to the dock. When adding another DVI or HDMI monitor separately, it didn't come up at all. It might display a fourth monitor if you could get an adapter that converts USB to DVI/HDMI/DisplayPort.

note it will output to HDMI *only* if there are no component cables plugged into RX-675 monitor output. When something is plugged in there, that will be the preferred video output for component input; it will not be sent to HDMI (thank you Amazon support for helping me with this!)
