Thanks works like magics

[@bitcoinchartanalysis]

You just saved me $100 for an adapter. Thanks!

[@sl5311]

Wow timely! I was going to hook up one and then another later to an older screen. Thank you.

[@tallfreakfaves]

Glad I could help!

[@michael_n]

Hi! Great information, but wouldn't it work with a straight USB-C to HDMI or USB-C to DisplayPort cable instead of an adapter?

[@tallfreakchris]

Yes that should work also!

[@FreezingFroggie]

Does the adapter get too hot? I used to have a usb-c to hdmi cable for my macbook pro, and it used to get really hot.

[@tallfreakfaves]

Not at all. I just double checked to confirm. I don't know if it's just constructed better or if that braided fabric cools it off. The metal connecting piece also was not hot.

[@JonathanLuntadila]

it works with mac studio too?

[@tallfreakfaves]

I would say any Mac or PC that has HDMi or DisplayPort outputs

[@AndreiTV539]

But can I connect a Mac mini to an iMac from 2015 and to an LG monitor at the same time?

[@tallfreakfaves]

I would think so if they both have monitor inputs. You just might need the adapter or a HDMi to USB-C cord since the Mac mini only has one HDMI output

[@mnnc6742]

Would a single male hdmi connected to mini with dual female hdmi’s for monitors work……two monitors off single hdmi ?

[@tallfreakchris]

I’m not entirely sure but it might only duplicate the same screen on both monitors instead of extending

[@mnnc6742]

@@tallfreakchris yea I was thinking that possibility. Makes sense seperate outputs for separate inputs making the monitor signal independent

[@MichaelSchiebel-v3o]

and my crap Mac Book Pro M3 can't do that :D

[@dolphinmoto3226]

I tried to connect both monitors using two type-c and only one worked :)

[@tallfreakchris]

Try using the HDMI on one and the USB-C with the other

[@lemon58421]

just buy a monitor with usb c / thunderbolt and so you don't need an adapter :-)

[@tallfreakfaves]

I'm trying to use my existing monitors for now but will keep that in mind!

why the fuck no video shows how to check display settings?
