Does a regular USB cord work on this? It looks like its shaped like a HDMI input?

It comes with a cord with a small plug at one end (for the adapter) and a USB plug at the other. The cord is about six feet long, though I haven't measured it.

I am looking at mine and it does not have a USB connection. It has HDMI (which I am using), VGA, DVI, and speaker and headset jack. No USB though.

Windows USB out to hdmi input of TV. Your question implies your tv hasn't enough hdmi inputs. Don't think this will work.

make sure both the HDMI and the USB cables are plugged in. It needs the USB for power.

Dear Tiffany,This was my leap of faith. I couldn't find a technical replacement for the cord from any specialty shop. It is a custom cord with a USB end on it. I looked at the back of my driveThe port looked like a little house with a white square in the center of it. The cord was inexpensive here. I bought it and the whole thing was a success. Korky

No this is not what you need. This is just an extender for a HDMI cord. you need to search "USB to HDMI" and that is what you need

No it's not a standard USB cable. I don't recommend purchasing this product.

I have returned this since it was not working with my computer. Since then, using a Sabrent USB to HDMI adapter, this works fine

Yes, I use the usb connector to hook up to my laptop. It also comes with another connection cord; I am not sure what the name is... it has three color-coded plugs (maybe called s-video???)

NO, it works just the other way around. You feed it with a VGA signal and it returns an HDMI signal.

Depends upon whether you have a smaller HDMI connector on your laptop (which I believe you would). My laptop does not have an HDMI "out" so I have not attempted this. I think you need to search for "Mini HDMI to regular HDMI" cable. Hope this helps.

This cord will not work for you. First off its a Display Port to HDMI. Display port is not USB. Another Thing is, the HDMI on this is a female end, not a male end, and i assume the connection on your laptop is a HDMI Port.I'm Not even sure you can use the USB port on your TV for video, I'm pretty sure most TV's only work for HDMI for Video+Audio, or VGA for video Only(No Audio).

Not sure what you are asking. Just plug in pcmcia, install driver and it should work like normal USB.

I'm not sure. I only have standard HDMI connections. You should probably contact the manufacturer/distributor.

Yeah, it does. I ended up getting an HDMI to 15 pin cord because if your laptop has an hdmi port it fits better and won't come out.

I think you are asking if you can plug the USB cord on the device to a USB port on the TV? I don't know for sure if it will work. I do think that the USB cord is just providing power to the converter, so as long as the port it is plugged into provides power, it should work. The only reason I can think of for doing this, is that you don't have an open USB port on your computer.

What is CEC? Did it work with other hdmi cables? If it did you may need to exchange it for a new one.
