does this convert both ways. Like does it convert Hdmi to Dvi and Dvi to Hdmi

I'm using to convert HDMI from a cable box to to the DVI connection on an older TV. No experience with the reverse, but the product description on Amazon says: "Connects your computer or DVI-equipped device to an HDMI-equipped HDTV or display; connects HDMI-equipped source devices".

This will work for converting DVI to VGA. The only way it won't work is if the signal is DVI-D which in that case you'll need an active converter. You can tell by looking at the flat part on the DVI connector and see if it has 2 pins above and below it, and if it does it is not DVI-D so it should work.

I don't know. The HDMI end goes to my computer video card, and the DVI end goes to my video projector. It works.

Hi Zod,Yep, it does. I just plugged the DVI port into one monitor and the HDMI into another and my desktop is extended beautifully across both.It seems to default to the DVI as the primary.Hope that helps.

Steven Shields, The DisplayPort in the description is a DisplayPort output. If you need to connect a VGA monitor, one of the DVI ports can be converted.

The device itself has one DVI and one HDMI connector. With an adapter, you can also support VGA monitors. For example, I am currently driving one monitor via the DVI connector at 1680x1050, and a second monitor via the HDMI connector and a HDMI-to-DVI adapter at 1920x1200. I hope this answers your question.

Yes. I also once used it as DVI to HDMI and it worked! You've mentioned a good point many people miss.

Yes, it has a DP (DisplayPort) and a VGA connector. So you can attach one through VGA and the other through the DP. If you use a monitor without DP (only HDMI or VGA), you need a convertor from HDMI to a DP.

This adaptor uses a passive converter type. See the product page. http://www.startech.com/AV/Displayport-Converters/Mini-DisplayPort-to-DisplayPort-DVI-or-HDMI-Multifunction-Adapter~MDP2DPDVHD

It converts the component input to an hdmi output. It does not convert the other way.

I haven't tried HDMI to DVI. I can't really test it either because I don't have that kind of cable. I can't see why is shouldn't work though. The output is pretty much a passthrough.

Yes! One is HDMI and the other is DVI. I have two ASUS HD monitors on the system currently.

This is not a converter, thus is merely a cable to allow two computers to share one monitor, keyboard and mouse. If you need to connect this cable to an VGA output, you need to buy an adaptor. I had to do that since I have two computers, one has HDMI output, one has VGA output. Hope this helps.

Actually no. This doesn't work at all. One end is analog (DVI) and the other is digital (HDMI) this will not work without a converter. So buy it if you want to waste your money.

Yes, DVI out carries video signal only. So the DVI to HDMI will only carry video.

I dont think it does. I switched devices. This one would not detect the hdmi signal on my dvi to hdmi cable.

This card comes with a DVI port in the back of it. But it also comes with a DVI to VGA converter with it in the box that you can attach to the DVI port to make it VGA. So yes it can be converted
