    Mac Pro 4,1->5,1 Video Card Audio

    I was wondering if somebody who has experience upgrading old Mac Pros could tell me if I put in a GTX 1080 or 1080 Ti (flashed) if I will be able to use the display port audio output. As it is, I am not able to select my monitor for audio output, connected via mini display port to HDMI. From...

    Apple TV Set Up Issue - HDMI

    I just got an Apple TV 4K as a gift, but realized that I need an HMDI cable. My TV is mounted on the wall, very close to another wall. It's not easy to reach and I would have to move a desk in order to see if I would have enough room to add the HDMI cable. I have an ethernet cable that runs...

    Yamaha Receiver with TCL TV

    I know this is a shot in the dark, but I’m reaching the end of my rope with Google solutions that are vaguely similar to the issue I’m having. I’m trying to set up my new TCL 55P607 TV with my Yamaha RX-V377 receiver using strictly HDMI. Currently, I can get video, and I can get the receiver...

    4k Monitor - USB-C or no USB-C?

    Hi there, for my MacBook Pro 13" 2017, I want to buy a monitor. As 21:9 ultrawides aren't really available/affordable in real 4k (i.e. 2000p), I may just go for a "regular" 4k monitor. I'm considering e.g. a LG 27UD58P and a LG 27UD88-W. And I wonder, the 88 is significantly more expensive...

    HDMI cable iPhone issue

    Hello, I used this HDMI cable with iPhone SE months ago with my external monitor (salvaged from old laptop screen). It used to connect to iPhone SE not anymore. Today I used iPad2 and it worked, so the cable works yet I do not understand why it does not work for iPhone. Any solution is appreciated.

    iMac 2017 HDMI port and UHD tv?

    I want to hook up a UHD tv to my 2017 iMac 27”. Do I need a wretched dongle to get UHD output? For 60 hz? For 30? I have an old Thunderbolt 2 to HDMI adaptor, but nothing for USB 3. I’m hoping to avoid #donglelife

    I normally use my regular Air screen when doing normal computing tasks but I have an HDMI connection for watching movies on a TV. The HDMI cord is directly attached to a Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter. My problem is that if I want to pause the movie and go back to the regular screen, the cursor...

    Hi, I have a couple of questions that I'm hoping someone can answer for me about the new AppleTV 4K 1. I have a 4K TV but it is not HDR compatible. I'm assuming this will not be a problem, and I will still be able to get a 4K picture, but without HDR. Is that correct? 2. What type of HDMI...

    I sometimes use my 12.9 IPad Pro (1st Gen) attached to a 16:9 27” external monitor using a HDMI to lightning adapter. Works fine except the aspect ratio does not match of course. Movies and videos in 16:9 are fine, but for general use you lose about a third of the display. So I have been...
