My HDTV only has a DVI connection, no HDMI . Can I use this adaptor to connect Google Chromecast or Firestick to my tv thru it's DVI plug?

The main thing you want to do is to study the picture and description to be sure that your TV port matches the gender of the DVI portion of the adapter, and that the HDMI port on the adapter matches the gender of the device you're plugging into it. Other than that, it should work.

If you mean an wireless adapter like chromecast, then yes, I am using a chromecast on my HDTV and it works well.

Hi Rosanna!Thank you for your inquiry!I have confirmed with our technology team for this item and the only adapter this needs is a HDMI.AisteBisonOffice

I was hesitant to answer because I'm not sure. I tried to convert the DVI to HDMI for a laptop to be on my 4 port switch and had a hell of a time finding an adapter to work. I'd research the adapters and find one that says they did that sucessfully... that would be your answer.

That won't work. This monitor has neither an HDMI input (needed for Chromecast) nor an audio out. It has one port only: a DisplayPort input. That port carries a video signal only. If you still wish to use this as a monitor, make sure your computer has a DisplayPort output. For audio, you will need to use separate speakers connected to your computer, not the monitor.

No, what you want is a micro USB to HDMI adapter to do video out. Easier than that is using a Chromecast or other dongle to mirror the screen. But if you insist on cabling out, get the adapter and connect to any HDMI compliant screen using pretty much any HDMI cable.

Yes, do a search for "Google Chromecast HDMI Streaming Media Player". This provides wireless connectivity to HDMI...

I bought this cable and am very happy with it. I use a Google Chromebook, which has HDMI out. I have it going into my monitor, which has DVI in. I'm not certain if this cable works both ways, but I found the guys via customer service for Cables Unlimited to be very helpful. If they haven't already responded with certainty regarding the 2-way compatibility, I suggest emailing them directly. They'll take care of you.

Yes. Chromecast works on this monitor. It can work on any monitor / tv with an HDMI port, however you may get black bars on the sides of your screen as Chromecast only displays in 1080p and the resolution would be stretched horizontally.

yes either that or DVI-HDMI adapter if you already have a DVI-D cable lying around (not DVI-I single link). You can purchase one here, just search for tripp-lite DVI HDMI adapter.

You'll need to get a converter. There's different makes and models, but I ordered the View HD Premium HDMI to composite Model H2STVs. It will work with anything that connects to HDMI if your TV has the yellow, red and white composite inputs. It's $51, so for a little more, a new TV with an HDMI port may be best. Here's a link to the one I have: http://amzn.to/1wyJgwe And here's a YouTube video showing how someone connected his Chromecast to an old TV using a different HDMI converter. It doesn't matter if it's a Chromecast or Fire Stick; they both connect using HDMI. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2e23Ps5AWw

I can connect to my project and running it like tv connected? that's your question and I think you meant I can't connect to my projector and run it like TV. if so you need to make sure concerning the interface you want to use when connecting to the display if wired this android stick needs HDMI interface my guess it's male connector or mini hdmi female in which you need a cable mini male hdmi to male hdmi if the device in this case projector has hdmi female connector then no problem if else then you need an adapter to any HDMI FORM you need a shape shifter also for DVI but if your projector have only VGA then you need an adapter for shape and signal you can find such device to transfer HDMI signals to VGA on amazon just search for it but before you do that please check if the stick is really working or not in many case the stick doesn't work

yes, you need an hdmi cable to connect the adapter to and then the other end of the hdmi cable connects to the tv. order the hdmi cable from amazon. they are much less expensive than a store.

I would like to know the same thing, about google chromecast, roku stick, and the amazon fire stick. Can they be directly plugged into the HDMI port and directly projected onto a screen.

To be honest, I was not able to get the adapter running. I use an Onkyo Receiver and an HP laptop. Both companies 1st line support replied to my question that it is very difficult to establish the interface between Displayport and HDMI. And they are right, I checked out 4 different adapters and none was working.

Mandy, I can't respond to your specific TV or Chromecast, but I used the adapter to connect my ROKU 3 HDMI output to my Denon Receiver RCA inputs and it works great. If your older plasma TV uses RCA inputs and your Chromecast uses an HDMI output, I don't know why it wouldn't work just as well. I know for a fact that you cant use a wire that has an HDMI plug on one end and RCA jack on the other. You have to use an adapter like this one. Hope this is helpful.

I don't see why not - I'm taking the HDMI output of my PC to a DVI input on a projector with no issues.
