Can I use this to go from a pc via usb and out to a monitor with RCA? My only intended use for this cable is to have a second display via usb.

I am using this to import video from a camcorder or vice to my computor I think you need a video output device. Thanks good luck

Yes you can, but you need an adaptor, i believe this monitor only uses MiniDisplay port. Common PC monitor uses HDMI, VGA, and DVI connections. Unless you have some of the newer Video Cards that have MiniDisplay port out then, you'll have to buy a seperate adaptor to work.

sorry, I used it to hook up a second monitor I don't know if it would work for you

This adapter is specifically for output to another monitor from a Computer or Laptop... so it is an output device only. I would not expect it to be able to work as an input device at all.

Can't use it as a monitor the way it is-doen't have a vga or dvi terminal. You will need to get a pc to tv converter to connect the vga output from a computer to the rca composite terminal on the tv.

Not easy to say. PC must have HDMI not USB which looks very similar but are not. Many Monitors use only a VGA which has less pins in the screw on end of cord. I suggest check your pin configuration on Monitor because some DVI's have less pins. I made that mistake first time around.

This device with the use of you USB2/3 port will creat an HDMI port. The TV via HDMI you attach it to will become a second monitor on your PC.

Bought mine for the other way around - PC graphics card had HDMI and I wanted to connect to an old VGA monitor. It worked but it may not work for PC VGA out to TV HDMI in. I reference the product description where it says "HDMI to VGA / RCA cable is designed to connect and transfer signals from HDMI port to VGA / RCA port". It doesn't specifically call out a reverse capability. It's so cheap however and has free shipping that you could take a chance and find our for yourself.

I don't see a way to do that unless you have a monitor that could connect with a USB port. Other than that, I love my new computer! I've had it since mid-August.

I don't believe that this monitor (or any monitor) will display through a usb connection. You will need to use vga, rca,rgb, dvi, or hdmi. your best bet with a laptop is either hdmi or vga.

I used this splitter to attach a second monitor, it works well for this, I would suppose that if you were trying to link two computers the same way it could work?

Yes you can, providing that you are currently using HDMI connections between your computer and your monitor. I am using mine to switch between a PC, a Tivo box and a Roku box.

You would have to have an RCA analog video and audio cable to use as a monitor. Simply plug in to the side connectors and choose AV input. There are no USB or HDMI inputs.

It depends on how you're using it. If you're using it for a VCR you would need to plug the RCA jacks into your VCR and the USB to your TV. It won't work the other way around though. The USB on this cable is output only... I tried using it to hook up my laptop to the TV. It was a no-go. But for your VCR it should do just fine.

It is designed to convert the RCA to VGA only. It did not work for me at all, but it is supposed to only go one way (RCA -&gt; VGA). I would look for an active adapter for your needs.

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

Yes, that's the very purpose of this cable. Just connect it to your HDMI port on your computer graphics card and then connect the other end to your DVI port on your big monitor.
