For the less technically inclined consumer...If i plug this device into my laptop and TV, can i display my desktop on the TV?

No, fit-Headless connected to your laptop helps you login to the laptop from another computer and have smoother graphics. For displaying the desktop on a TV without cables you would need something like Miracast, WiDi or Chromecast.

No. This does not transmit a picture to a TV. It is made to use on a computer that has no monitor attached (headless), which you are driving remotely from another computer. You attach this to the headless computer to make the graphics card on it work properly.

I don't know because I used it for a different purpose. I'm blind and I use voiceover on my Mac. I don't have a monitor and I plugged this device into my Mac so that it would operate as if there was a monitor plugged in. I would think that if it has an output it would display anything you could plug into it.

No. It is basically a piece of plastic with an HDMI plug. It does nothing but convince a computer with no monitor that there is indeed a monitor attached.

Yes, works great to output to an HDTV or monitor. Default output clones the desktop to the external display but you can alter this to output to different resolutions and to also extend the desktop instead of cloning the screen. The integrated Intel Graphics software is easy to understand and use to make these output changes.

Yes, because your desktop will show up on the tv screen just like it's your own moniter. Then you can use the tv screen like any monitor. With the mouse I changed the screen resolution while checking out Yutube to get a better size ratio and to go full screen on the youtube videos that I was watching and it looks terrific.

Most likey not, most computers will prioritise one output over another or have you select what output you want it in. And if the computer doesnt have you select it your tv will. For example "hdmi 1" or hdmi 2." id advise searching "how to set up a 3 output display with laptop" on youtube.

Possibly! I connect my laptop's display port to a tv if your graphics card supports display port as an output, yes, this cable will connect it to an hdmi on your tv.

Wouldn't a laptop or desktop with wireless internet capability be able to do the same thing and more as a Roku if you used your tv as a monitor (simply requires a HD tv with a old PC video pin connector or HDMI/DVI out from the computer?If your a DirecTV subscriber with a DVR, you can also use the computer with DirecTV2PC to play whats on your DVR in another room in very high quality.

You can connect your laptop to the TV, provided your TV has an HDMI cable - for most televisions. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products.--Mr. S

I connect my pc up to the tv and use it when I need more desktop space. You can also use your tv as a stand alone monitor.

If your TV does not have a powerful enough USB port you might be able to try a Desktop version which comes with its own power supply.

It won't be a direct connection to your TV. This is best as a PC hardware accessory.

There are devices designed to do what you describe. They create a wireless video connection between your computer and the TV so whatever is displayed on your computer is displayed on the TV HOWEVER, this device does NOT do this. What you need is something like: Netgear PUSH2TV HD PTV2000 1080P Adapter for Wireless Display But be careful, there are compatibility issues to be carefully considered.

It depends. Your laptop will need to have an output compatible with one of the available TV's inputs.

Yes, as long as your tv and laptop has HDMI inputs. Almost all new laptops and tv's have these

You can connect this device to your PC HDMI output convert it to VGA output if thats what you want to do.However please check if your graphic card output do support outputting VGA and HDMI signal at the same time.

As long as your computer has HDMI out, you can plug that into this unit's input. Then, connect the outs to your monitor, and TV

I have already answered this question before. It didn't work for me. This device could NOT support my desktop and my smart TV . I don't know about other devices I don't have. I wrote to the seller to return it.

I believe you are only supposed to install it on one computer, but I have not tried to do so on another. Unless you use the TV as a monitor on the computer, then no on the TV.
