Q: Would this adapter work to connect a Nintendo Wii via HDMI cord to a receiver/flat screen for both audio & video?
submitted by Ryan M - 6 years ago
A: No, this adapter would require a driver for functionality and only supports WIndows and MacOS operating systems. You would need a Wii to HDMI converter.

A: Hi, Ryan M! Regarding your question about the j5 Create USB A 3.0 HDMI Adapter - White: No, as the USB ports on the Nintendo switch aren't designed for outputting video and this device is an HDMI out so it would have to connect to something with an HDMI 3.0 for sending the signal outbound, such as a laptop. If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact MyTGTtech at 877-698-4883 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

A: No, USB to HDMI adapters do not work on a PlayStation console. The PS only has a HDMI video out port that it uses to transmit audio and video in conjunction with a HDMI cable. It cannot transmit audio or video via USB and it will also require a driver to be installed, which the PS OS does not take in. If the HDMI port of your PS is broken, you will need to get it fixed.

Right-click on the Windows Start Button and select "Power Options". From Power Options, select on "Additional power settings". From this window, select "Choose what closing the lid does", along the left-pane.

A: This device is only able to output an HDMI signal to provide an additonal monitor. If you would like to connect your Nintendo Switch to your computer you will need a device known as a Capture Card.
This adapter is designed to connect additional monitors to laptops and desktops, offering a solution for those needing extra screen space. Many guests appreciate its ease of use, particularly for Windows devices, where it functions well after driver installation. However, compatibility issues with certain Mac models and the requirement for software downloads have led to mixed experiences. Overall, it serves as a practical tool for enhancing productivity in various setups.

DO NOT BUY!
This does NOT work with a Microsoft Surface. Please save your time and money and buy another manufacturer's product instead. I spent a silly amount of time installing drivers and trying to connect with their customer service team only to be told it's not compatible and they would not offer me a refund. Horrible experience!

Downloaded Driver and Technical Support
I bought this because it states that it's compatible with iOS for Mac. I downloaded the driver from the manufacturer's website compatible with the version of iOS I had on my macbook. After receiving the same error several times, after multiple reboots and redownloading after updating my iOS, still nothing. I tried calling technical support, it went straight to a generic voicemail that stated it was full and the recipient could not receive any more messages. I emailed support, have not heard from them.
1 reply from J5create Team team - 3 years ago
The USB to HDMI Multi-Monitor Adapter is compatible with MacOS, not compatible with IOS devices. Proper functionality entails downloading and installing a driver on a Mac platform. Depending on the OS you have, different instructions apply. Our technical support team is currently experiencing a high volume of inquiries, but please rest assured that we have your request in our queue, and we will get to it as quickly as we can. Thank you.

Works well
I purchased this item to be able to use multiple a separate monitor independently with my desktop computer. The monitor had come with HDMI cords. Because of the lack of HDMI slots on my computer, and the multitude of USB slots, this device easily allowed me to convert HDMI to USB, and use the monitor with my computer. I've had this device for about six months so far, and there have been absolutely no problems. Recommended. Also, apparently this device is less expensive when purchased online rather than in-store, though it can be picked up in-store; this was the case when I purchased it, though I don't know if that is still the case.

Another option is the JCC153G USB-C to 4K HDMI Cable is a PnP, however, it will require a computer to support an available USB-C port with DisplayPort v1.2 Alt Mode to transmit audio and video signals.

It DOES work - just follow the instructions
As others have said, this is NOT a plug and play device. You have to download the driver first and then you can begin using. I bought this to add a 3rd monitor to my work from home setup, and ended up coming back to buy a 2nd one to replace a different adapter I’ve been using that is starting to act up on me. I definitely recommend!

The USB to HDMI Multi-Monitor Adapter is compatible with Windows and Mac platforms. Unfortunately, there are no drivers available for Chrome OS. If your computer has a USB-C that supports DisplayPort Alt Mode for video out, you can go with JCA153G USB-C To 4K HDMI Adapter.
