@@kskroyaltech What to do if im trying with 2 windows and at the device manager nothing shows usb camera or anything else. Thank you your response in advance.
Bro i hope you see this message and help me. So i want to connect my laptop as a second monitor, i already have the monitor setup with its pc. When i connect the laptop to the monitor, it makes me use the laptop mouse pad and keyboard in order to do everything. I dont know if its cause its connected in hdmi 1 and i have to switch the monitor to hdmi 1 in order to use the laptop as a second monitor. I am not able to use the mouse and kb i got connected on the monitor. It also changes my monitor screen to the laptop screen.
Let's say Monitor 1 is running windows 11, you want to use other laptop as secondary monitor. So, We are connecting monitor 1 with HDMI male and the other end of the HDMI male is plugged in to HDMI Female to USB connected to laptop.
recently i salvaged an old lenovo all in one, and installed linux mint on it, i guess this method works also on linux right? do i need to install some dependencies?
Make sure the HDMI male cable goes into the HDMI port of GPU on your PC. And then it has to be passed through the usb port of your laptop to be used as second monitor.
I tried miracast to extend my main laptop screen onto a spare laptop, but there seems to be some compatibility issues as there is constant flickering with a greenscreen shown on my laptop. Idk whats the issue any recommendations would be of great help. If i try using hdmi cable will this same issue occur??
hello, can you make a tut on the installation of debain? that non-free debain version thingy where my hardware will work without any headache. (i'll be switchin from ubuntu to debainn cuz why not, lol) i hv 2 drives n i want to install debain on my ssd keeping my personal data of hhd safe. looking forward for the tut.
That's how to use two laptops as dual monitor. This isn't how to use a laptop as a monitor. If you were using it as a monitor you'd be able to plug an xbox into the hdmi port and it would display the xbox.
This is a waste of money. You can just setup the desktop with VNC Viewer, TeamViewer, or just use Microsoft's RDP which is native. The only reason you wouldn't use the above is for some reason the keyboard stopped functioning (which you could still use the built-in Accessibility wizard for typing) or the laptop was completely dead but had a functional screen. In that case you may as well pull it apart and convert into an portable monitor. This configuration just has you buying extra parts for nothing and burning the same amount electricity as if you were running the laptop and a PC.
@@baldediamsbal2351 No, it's not. Running OBS still requires system resources. You're better off buying a low-cost wifi adapter that gets you the same/similar speeds as an ethernet cord. The cost of a newer wifi adapter is less than $7 USD. If you want to get better results then you should plug both the tower and laptop/secondary device by ethernet to a repeating router or switch. No matter what convoluted scenario you try to come up with I can still use standard networking practices that is the same cost or cheaper AND better than the solution in this video.

Same @kskroyaltech
is it good for play game like genshin or offline game?
I tried with a HDMI to USB cable and it’s not recognizing the laptop. Does it have to be a male to male HDMI to a female HDMI to USB?
Your laptop need to have USB 3.0
@@juniorgy_ no it needs to be a capture card
can we use the laptop keys for typing when we use it as monitor via Obs?
Can you just plug the hdmi to the laptop rather than using the usb convertor?
Can I do the same thing put project a MacBook onto a windows laptop? My display is broken and Im in no place for a new monitor if you could reply it would be fantastic
dude you can even record it, if you want to record but dont want to utilize your pc! best method i have used so far
Yes you can record the screen that's awesome

Can you still record games with obs?
Hey how to connect the primary monitor to workstation ? What do u mean by that? Which cable should we use
@kskroyaltech ?:)
Hi , can i use DVI cable that plug to HDMI adapter then plug HDMI adapter to HDMI video capture ? can it work ?
Yes
quick question if i had to play a game on my desktop using my laptop connected controller how i can achieve that
I dont have an adapter but i have a USBC to display-port cable. Can I plug the usb c into macbook and displayport into pc?
does this have any lag or delay? I work in music production so I need the screen to be as fast as in my primary monitor
Very minor lag will be there. You may not notice that.
@@kskroyaltech thank you so much!!
will this work with a xbox series s? i have a win 11 laptop
Hello in case already have hdmi connector, so usb to hdmi is not needed right?
Then you need to choose a valid source in OBS Studio, to capture the input.
Hi can you pls confirm if you install the software on the laptop and configure settings from the laptop or was this all done on the desktop. Thanks
You can configure anything or install software from any display.
but primary monitor is the main here.
@@kskroyaltech thanks but I was talking about OBS did U install and configure that on laptop or on desktop
Laptop ..
@@kskroyaltech thanks 🙏
In case I want to use 2 laptops. Can the main one be a linux os? Do i need Obs in both?
You only need OBS on the laptop that's going to be used as a monitor
Can somehow detect only hdmi cable when its connected or mandatory have to buy that hdmi to usb spliter?
Check AMAZON.
would this work with a displayport to hdmi then the hdmi is inputted into the capture device?
Did you do this? I'm trying it worked with a tv but not with my Laptop
You have an amazing fan bro💀
How is the latency
If I have a hdmi port already in my computer do I need the usb to hdmi?
Let's say Monitor 1 is running windows 11, you want to use other laptop as secondary monitor.
So, We are connecting monitor 1 with HDMI male and the other end of the HDMI male is plugged in to HDMI Female to USB connected to laptop.
My laptop has hdmi port should I need to buy hdmi to usb connector?
that's probably a input port
will it work if i did the same put instead of a gamign pc i used a ps4
Uhg I need to buy things 🫠 my monitor broke in less than 3 months and the new one is on the way. Any way to do this with HDMI without adapter
Can you connect a pc to a laptop without a hard drive to use the laptop screen only?
If I find a solution I will make a video.
@@kskroyaltech ✌
Sadly when I open the OBS window, it shows only one camera (the laptop onboard) not the USB camera that is in the Device Manager... only one choice.
Would this work with an HDMI to USB-C adapter, too, or does this kind of data transfer work only with USB-A?
You can use HDMI to USB A or Type C ..
@@kskroyaltech can this work fast enough with usb 2.0 to be in usable state?
recently i salvaged an old lenovo all in one, and installed linux mint on it, i guess this method works also on linux right? do i need to install some dependencies?
All you need is OBS Studio.
I use my laptop as desktop monitor everything's OK but mouse delayed. How to fix this?
Is it lagging? I mean like the response time?
Very minor Latency issues
Can i use it for gaming? My main monitor broke and it will take some time to claim my waranty.
I guess so.
Couldn't thank you any more brother
Also Is there any way using which we can use the mac's keyboard too while the screen share
You cannot use Mac keyboard ..
bhai... kaam kiya kya ye aapka?
@@rajveersingh2056 yes
Will it work at 144hz tho? My laptop has a 144hz screen and i would love to use that with my gaming pc as i only have 60hz moniters 😭
give a try.
thanks!Now i can use my xiaomi mi tv stick on my old laptop that totally has less power than the tv stick lol.
I have a motherboard-damaged laptop. can I use it as a secondary monitor?
NO the laptop has to be functional and is capable of running OBS Studio.
If you want to repurpose the LCD screen as secondary monitor, have a look here: ruclips.net/video/6L0TPJEXiAI/видео.html
I don’t know if you will respond but my on my one when I select the usb video it just shows me the color screen how do I fix that?
Make sure the HDMI male cable goes into the HDMI port of GPU on your PC. And then it has to be passed through the usb port of your laptop to be used as second monitor.
does this work with PS4? can you use it for gaming?
give a try .
Can it be used when i have hdmi port in my laptop
*Just remember*
To Use Laptop as a Secondary Monitor all it needs a USB port to capture the INPUT using OBS Studio from the source computer.
Did we can record screen in this software with reboot and restart pc
yes and its awesome right.
Nice tip!
Glad you liked it!
WTF! Never thought it is possible in this way!
what i can do if my cpu does not have a hdmi port
0:51 I think is HDMI to USB connector, right ?
YES

Idk whats the issue any recommendations would be of great help.

i have HDMI port in my laptop do i need hdmi capture device?
YES. GET HDMI male to USB.

why do you call it debain instead of debian
How can i hear videos from my laptop screen to my headset that is connected with my pc?
I am not sure if that's possible.
How do you make it the only monitor?
You cannot use the Laptop Screen just like a REAL MONITOR Like a plug and play.
It’s not detecting the web cam
Can I use VGA connection to my laptop?
I never tried it, VGA to USB adapter is needed

Try with Different USB ports.
Can you directly use hdmi to an hdmi on laptop
NO you cannot. You need to use HDMI to USB module to capture.

No bandwidth is a problem on those case I have wayy better results using a cable
A tower should be connected by ethernet but mine isn't so I need all the bandwidth I can get and this is actually a decent solution
