Desktop has HDMI & VGA outputs.Monitor has only VGA IN @ 1080 Full HD. iTunes or Blue-ray require HDCP or does not play. Will this device work?

Yes, You can connect the HDMI output of your PC to the HDMI input of your TV or projector.It does not have a VGA input. Set VGAIN@1080 FullHD for correct resolutionGood Luck

I'm not clear on how or with what you want to connect.. I can tell you I bought this item to connect my Apple TV 2 to my projector and it works great even with airplay...

No, According to what I found out the HDMI output from the laptop is digital and VGA is analog. Need a converter.

I agree with what ReynerN said in response to your question; so long as you have a DVI output from your desktop, VGA is cake.

No. This device takes VGA and analog audio, and converts it to HDMI. Not the other way.

I used a DVI to HDMI cable and I am getting 1080p.If you video card supports it, you will get 1080p.If you use the vga connector, than maybe 720p is the max?

If it's a newer Mac mini with an HDMI hookup then yes. Although there are no speakers in this monitor so only the image transfers. Other than the HDMI is has a VGA hookup, so if you get an adapter that converts your current slot, I believe it's DVI, to VGA then it will work that way as well.

No the device will not provide HDCP so any output applicaiton that requires it is not going to work. I HAVE used this on an Apple TV but I have not tried watching rentals with it, I only used it for the slideshow use, and it didnt adapt to the geometry of my screen very well and so I moved on pretty quickly.

When models indicate PC input, what they are general talking about is VGA input (RGB). I don't work too much with macs either, but if your mac is able to have a VGA output (or similar video output where you can use a cable that will do X to VGA) then it should work fine. The OS shouldn't matter, it just needs to output a video signal.My personal thoughts on this is I would mainly use a PC input to watch download videos and such. Well if you have a PS3, Xbox 360, or dvd player with a USB connector you can just put the video on a USB drive from your computer and throw it on one of these systems and watch it on your TV. Plus there is always HDMI to DVI cables. When models indicate PC input, what they are general talking about is VGA input (RGB).

Yes, you need a hdmi to vga adapter with audio out unless your monitor has hdmi input.

there is a VGA, DVI and HDMI port in this desktop. I have a monitor with VGA, DVI, and HDMI port. It works good with VGA port, I have not tried DVI port, I tried HDMI port but that did not work.

There should be 2 VGA ports IIRC and an HDMI. Try it with a different monitor too!!
