• Alienware 17 R3 - external monitor (HDMI) - Netflix

  Hi all

  I'm having a problem with the Windows 10 Netflix app (and the problem also occurs when you try to use Netflix via Microsoft Edge) in which case the video will not display on my second monitor. I use an ASUS monitor connected via the HDMI port.

  You can hear the audio, but you can't see the video, unless you drag the app to the laptop screen. It of like if she displayed using the integrated Intel graphics card, but will not video with this app for the NVidia card. You can even change the application configuration to use the NVidia card in the NVidia Control Panel. It is locked to the integrated graphics chip.

  If you run Netflix through Google Chrome, it works very well and you can see the video perfectly on the screen.

  I contacted Netflix with no response, so I'm hoping to get some sort of answer from Dell and I hope this can be resolved with some kind of hotfix or, potentially, an update of the BIOS if necessary. I don't think I'm the only one with this problem, I don't see anywhere that it has been reported.

  If anyone has had this problem (be it with Netflix or another application) please let me know if you managed to solve the problem, and if not, could someone from Dell please help with this as not being able to watch Netflix through the Windows 10 app is extremely frustrating. It is the only way to watch movies in 1080 p. 1080 p is not supported in Google Chrome via the site Web of Netflix.

  Let me know if you need additional information.

  Kind regards.

  I would like to add that I have also exactly the same problem with the Alienware 17 R3 using the HDMI output to an external monitor.  In fact, I'm surprised it's not more widely reported.

  It seems that Netflix links itself to one of the graphics cards only.  So, if Netflix feeds to integrate graphics then that's all it can produce its video to.  And, as you pointed out, Netflix is locked to the graphics chip built into the Nvidia Control Panel.

  I could force a little to work by disabling the Intel HD Graphics graphics card in Device Manager - essentially forcing Netflix through the Nvidia card.  This enabled the video to display on the TV, but he doesn't really act too well when made this way (the task bar won't go away to start!)

  I was trying to see if there was a way to have instead of the HDMI output through the onboard graphics in place, but no could not see such an option to achieve this-looks like the HDMI going directly into the Nvidia card and bypasses the overall, integrated graphics card, unless I'm missing something?

  It's really a pretty annoying problem because it is indeed the only way to get the 1080 p content.  And for me, that's the only way for me to get content with a surround sound (via my headphone surround sound) to my 1080 p TV.  So for now, my options are either use the Netflix app on my TV to get 1080 p video with stereo audio, or use my laptop to get 720 p video with audio 5.1.  Sigh...

• My Port HDMI graphics card does not!

  I have the alienware x 51 with

  15 - 3.00 ghz

  graphics card-geforce gtx 645

  8 GB RAM

  What happens is when I turned on the computer, the system starts, but there is no display.

  I changed the onboard HDMI port hdmi cable and screen then comes. In the BIOS settings, the main display is discreet. Can someone help me?

  Try to update the BIOS.

  So again, it does not solve the issue. I open the computer, remove the video card. Give him some dust removal and replace in.

  Then check in the BIOS if it always shows the main screen as discrete.

• Satellite S50T-B - port HDMI questions

  Hi all...

  I hope you can help. I bought my new Satellite October last year and the first day I've known connection of an additional monitor problems. Initially I had an old monitor with a VGA connection, and of course this computer has only HDMI.

  So I bought an adapter, which did not work. I tried to connect my computer to the tv with the HDMI cable screen to test it, but it still doesn't work. It is still under warranty, so I sent it to the service of Toshiba, which couldn't find anything wrong with it and returned it to me.

  So I bought a new monitor (a BenQ) and a new HDMI cable. Indeed for some reason any he has worked for a couple of months.and isn't now. The computer does not detect the monitor and the monitor says there is no cable connected when I attach it to the computer.

  I tried everything and it drives me crazy.

  Hello

  The VGA-HDMI adapter will not work because HDMI provides digital signals and VGA (RGB) port supports analog signal. You cannot mix the two!

  In any case, go back to your HDMI problem.
  Please try this workaround:
  First of all go to BIOS (F2) and put back the default BIOS settings (F9) and save the changes (F10).
  Now connect the laptop and the TV with an HDMI cable. The two units must be OFF when connecting.
  Then turn on the monitor and then the laptop.

  AFAIK, you must use the function key: FN + F4 to switch to a display external or internal.

• Port HDMI IN WANT all-in-one product 23se-d494

  I just bought it at Best Buy. He seems to have a HDMI IN (not out) port, and the seller assured me that I could use, for example, to connect a DVD player or XBox.  I would like to use it to connect a 2nd computer and to switch between the two.  However, I see no way to change the display on the HDMI IN port, and there is no documentation anywhere on this page (or other) functionality of this material.

  I would be grateful for any help you can provide.

  Thank you, but my computers are connected via a local network.  It works a lot better for me as a peer-to-peer connection, because I have a dozen of devices on my home network.

  All I needed was the location of the switch, which toppled the output of the internal graphics card in the flow of the HDMI IN port.  It turns out that it is just below the DVD drive on the side of the system.  It is labeled with cryptic glyphs only, and I thought it was the 'eject' for the DVD player button.  Nope. It inverts the display between the graphical output internal and all that is streaming on the HDMI IN port.

  BTW, I spent a VERY frustrating 45 minutes in a session of online help for the so-called with HP support.  First, the tech told me I couldn't use the HDMI port to a 2nd display and was told that I needed an accessory USB HDMI to do.  Five times "she says" it for me.  Of course, I knew that, and in any case this was not what I was asking.  Clearly, she was reading a script and poorly trained.

  When she finally understood my question, she told me that what I wanted - display a 2nd computer on my screen output - was impossible (I do it now).  She said that the HDMI IN port would work only with a PS2 or a XBox.  At that time, I discovered the answer just by fiddling with the system.   I gave up and closed the session no need 'help '.  With these "technicians" misinformed, I'm not sure why HP that bothers.

  If only HP had thought to have a better online description of the buttons on the right side of the system as the "cookies" I would not have had this problem at all.  Good course, they are of the 'orders '. The question is what that they control!

  Thanks for responding in any case.

• (Redirected) Alienware Alpha question

  I bought this for my son for Christmas. Anyway, I ended up buying him the Xbox 1 as well. I want to hang the Alpha of its flat screen in his room, but also to a Dell 24 "monitor. The problem is that I see only 1 out HDMI on the Alpha.

  How connect both its flat screen and its monitor from the computer to the top at the same time? Some research shows that they offer a Powered HDMI splitter. Is this my only option?

  In addition, the monitor has a DVI connection normal so I need to get out of the Alpha HDMI splitter and 1 side brackets to the TV Samsumg, the other on its screen with a DVI HDMI converter.

  Is this really the only, it was this going to work? Can I connect through a USB port?

  Please notify.

• Alienware 17 R3 Noble port lock agreeing only not Noble lock CW114

  Trying to figure out if there is a problem with the lock or the port of advice or a help appreciated.

  Hi ILSON.,.

  Is the location badly aligned or damaged?

  Try another if possible lock of the same model and check.

  You need to like this - http://dell.to/2cyjdZW

  I'd suggest, if possible carry your system at a local store and check a lock appropriate before making the purchase.

  If none of the pockets to insert into the slot, then send me the exact lock models you have tested and we'll research more far.

  In addition, please click my username DELL and write me a private conversation with the service number and your contact information (name and Email) for files.

• Question about Powerconnect M6220 and out-of-band/management 8024-K connection

  I'm sorry if this question belongs to another section, but with regard to the functionality of these switches I thought I would start here.

  My question is, the M6220 and 8024-K out-of-band connection are going through the connections on Board (for example port 18 for example) or through connection of the M1000e CMC?

  The reason for this question. We recently vlaned our network and CMC modules are VLAN 8 (10.100.8.0 255.255.248.0) and management of our switches is supposed to be on the VLAN 1 (10.100.1.0 255.255.255.0). I can't ping on the affected IPS (IE 10.100.1.15), but our CMC modules are fully accessible (IE10.100.9.120). Our blades are fully accessible and can access all the VLANS on them (they are the ESX host).

  Finally, I'm sorry if all necessary information has been provided, I'm not so much a networking guru.

  Thoughts?

  Thanks for your help

  The OOB interface is connected to the chassis management controller by the median plane of the chassis. Traffic on this

  port is separated from network traffic operating on the switch ports and cannot be lit or routed to the operational network.

• ENVY 13-D046TU: F.35Ap1 BIOS update kills port HDMI on ENVY laptop

  After installation of the firmware update marked Softpaq number: SP75152, F.35Ap1 Version now four of our laptops (13 "and 14" ENVY ENVY) have a HDMI port not working. The external screens are 'no signal '.

  We spent a lot of time with the help of HP (via Hong Kong, we found ourselves in India). Remote control sessions. All a waste of time. The update of the BIOS is faulty, no system restore cannot solve this problem.

  Same day (June 13, 2016) one of our laptops automatically installed this update of the BIOS with the HP Support Assistant and killed the HDMI port.

  A. is there a way to acquire and install the previous BIOS?

  When can b. we expect a new update of the BIOS?

  C. how the hell did this update of the BIOS pass test? -> 4 / 4 updated computers laptops have a broken HDMI port. We have 7 other laptop on the left who are fortunately not updated.

  Hi there @BugFinderand @DebVancouver.

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!  It's a good place to find the help you need, other users, HP experts and other support staff. From what I understand, bothl of you experience the same problem with HDMI after a BIOS update.  I'm happy to help you with this.

  I would, if possible, that each of you try the laptops HP - restore the BIOS to a restoration to the having previously worked BIOS.  The main purpose is to return you to a working state. If this method works for you, obviously do not install BIOS update again.

  Edit: Bugfinder reported that restoration, the method of BIOS didn't work for him, but he had to do several times (4 times in at least one case). I guess you could say that it is true to its name, and I thank very you much for the comments.

  Please let me know if it works for you and if not let me know if there is an error message any. If this does not solve your immediate problem, please mark this message as a solution. Bravo would be appreciated as well.

• Satellite Pro A300 - 1 GR - VGA ports with TV-out function?

  Hello

  Can someone tell me if the VGA port on my Satellite Pro A300-1 (Mobile Intel GMA 4500MHD) is equipped with TV-out function?

  If a single cable is needed to connect with TV's S-video input while a TV-out function is not available, then a relatively expensive converter is necessary?

  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  Have you checked the user manual?
  What is the manual says?
