HDMI to VGA Video + Audio Adapter[ID:1151]

Post by Lalit »

The product above does not work as I'm unable to view my laptop screen on the TV using it.

Can you help with it or let me know the procedure to return the product for a refund.

Your laptop has HDMI output, and your television has VGA input?

Are you sure you have switched the television input to VGA? It won't go there automatically.

Depending on what kind of laptop you have, you may also have to switch the output to HDMI.

Thanks for your reply! Actually its the other way around, my laptop has VGA output and TV has HDMI input. So, does it mean it will not work. Please let me know.

Nope, won't work. The data direction is one-way HDMI to VGA.
Please email [email protected] with a link to this thread and ask for a refund.
