      The problem is when he started the video, he had only 1 monitor. After pluggin the second monitor and updated drivers at 2:34, you have 2 monitors working and you get the left side (monitor #1) and right side (monitor #2) speakers.. Now he sound like he's center. Wait till he gets #3 and #4 on, then it's srs surround sound.

    Question….. I have 2 VGA monitors (and 2 vga to hdmi converters.)
    If I get a USB 3.0 to dual hdmi (MTS) will that work to have 3 displays??
    I just don’t wanna spend the $70 and Have to deal with a refund.
    I know the USB.30 to dual hdmi will work. But only if it goes directly into a HDMI device. Not sure if I can use both converters??? Help?

      @Betzareoff  2 года назад +1

      Thank you for reaching out. I avoid the USB to multiple monitor adaptors for my office use. So, I apologize, I don't know what the adapter's capacity will be. Most of these 1 to 2, 3 etc adaptors do not output similar resolution to each monitor. One at higher than the other/s. Because of that I buy a 1 USB to one output adaptors. Look into the brand of adaptor in the video. They usually include two passive adaptors with each USB unit.

    Hi there loved the video and learned so much. Just one question my laptop that is about three years old has only one hdmi output and 3 usb ports. If I wanted to extend to two further monitors could I use the hdmi output on my laptop for one and a use an hdmi output in conjunction with the adaptor for the second additional monitor? Any info would be great. My laptop is an HP Many thanks.

    • @Betzareoff
      @Betzareoff  4 года назад +2

      Hi. Thank you for watching. Yes, you can use the HDMI output/port for one. I’m unclear on how you plan to attach the second but I’ll give a general Windows OS port identification. The challenge with HDMI & VGA ports is that Windows only sees one port (in your case one HDMI) and only sends one signal and manages one signal out of that port. So, if you were to use HDMI signal splitters, you'll only see one signal on all the monitors that you attach to your one HDMI port. Now, for your incremental upgrade, you only have to add one of the adapters reviewed (any adapter with Displaylink chip) to make use of your second monitor by attaching via USB. The USB advantage is, Windows can support 127 devices. Theoretically, you can attach that many USB hubs plus USB to VGA/DVI/HDMI adapter combo to send/receive signals and mange output to. Let me know if this helped.

      Hi BestGuide, are you plugging all three monitors to one VGA using a signal splitter? If so, it does not affect the VGA port but all monitors show the same signal. Let me know if that helped. I'm happy to assist. Thank you for watching and subscribing.

    • @Betzareoff
      @Betzareoff  3 года назад

      Dell products are strange like that. Try this, when all three monitors are on, select the laptop screen (if it shows that you have four displays), follow steps at 5:42 to select your laptop screen, from the drop down menu in the MULTIPLE DISPLAYS section where you can select to extend...etc, see if "disconnect this monitor" is selected for your laptop screen. If so change to extend to this monitor. If this does not work try when only two displays and the laptop screen are working and perform the steps. If If neither steps solve your problem, it might be Dell's docking station programming limitation.
      I'd also suggest testing on a different brand laptop

Now, if you have an HDMI port on your computer 1:31, you can plug directly to your computer and follow the rest of the instructions to set up your display.

      Hi Basvaraja,
      To duplicate my laptop monitor, I selected my laptop monitor and chose "make this my main display" first. Once you do that, please choose the projector (projector number is found by clicking on the "identify" icon) you want to display on and select "duplicate desktop on 1 and 2 or 1 and 3. For example if I want to show what's on my laptop monitor on my number 3 monitor in my video, I'd choose "duplicate desktop on 1 and 3" from the multiple displays section with my apology for the super slow reply.

      The passive connectors only have signal pass through without signal amplification and relies on the computer graphic/video processor. I had used a passive Mini Display port to a VGA HDMI DVI combo that was only capable of duplicating the desktop when I connected two monitors. If you're only passing through signal to one monitor, no problem. These passive adapters are actually included with the USB adapter I reviewed. At least these guys are generous enough to include the passive adapters instead of selling you three separate units.
