    • @ThinkFrugal
      @ThinkFrugal  2 роки тому +1

      Your android box should have an available aspect ratio of 4:3 with a corresponding resolution options. In some cases, some cheap android boxes do not support this. I guess this has something to do with the low end gpu installed on these type of boxes.

    Pro tip, there are DVI to HDMI cables. If your monitor has a DVI port, get one of those to avoid adapters that may need extra power.

      @@fruitsquad_en Yes, my AmazonBasics HDMI to DVI cable works as well as my HDMI to DisplayPort cable from the same brand. I use them to connect my older monitor to my PC and Xbox.
      The brand should not matter, tho, since those three standard are digital and don't need converters or adapters to work together.

      ​@@elmerestelon9374 Bluetooth speakers/soundbar.
      I couldn't find a working HDMI to DVI+Audio adapter anyway, so if you're gonna use the DVI port of your monitor, Bluetooth audio seems like the best solution.
      If your monitor has a VGA port, then use an HDMI to VGA+audio adapter. Tho that comes with the hassle of worse (analogic) video quality and using adapters.

    • @ThinkFrugal
      @ThinkFrugal  2 роки тому

      If you have tried this on two televisions (NOT Monitors), the following could be the possible reasons why you are getting the "no signal" error:
      1. HDMI cable might be defective, try using a different cable
      2. The device you are connecting to the television might have the wrong resolution settings. The device and the television resolution must match.
      3. The device you are connecting to is already defective.
      Please ensure that you can successfully connect to a television first, so we could strike out all the possible reasons mentioned above.

    • @ThinkFrugal
      @ThinkFrugal  2 роки тому +1

      Yung av2vga na adapter bro uses an analog conversion. Pwede siya from rca to vga kapag hindi ganun kalaki ang resolution. Pag sinakdakan mo siya ng vga2dp or vga2hdmi, may conversion ulit yun from analog to digital, na pwedeng magcause ng latency, or delay na tinatawag. Hindi advisable ang ganitong setup. May puti na convertor na av2hdmi na available din, nagamit ko na ito noon and it worked for me.

      @@chrischanchannel1318 Sadly, ganun din ang mangyayari bro, DVI is also digital kaya magkakaroon din ng 2-process conversion. Mas mainam yung av2hdmi yung gamitin mo bro if you really want the 1080p, dahil isang conversion lang ang mangyayari. Tingin ko bro 720p is quite ok, 1080p will just be an upscaled version. Di ganun kalaki yung quality difference dahil galing sa composite video yung source, smudgy pa rin ang magiging outcome. Kung yung device source mo ay may component ports (Additional red, green and blue ports), may component2hdmi din na available. Mas higher ang quality nito.
