EVanlak Hdmi Edid Emulator Passthrough 3rd Generrtion Premium Aluminum Eliminated Emulator Adapter Work with Mac Thunderbolt to HDMI Switches/Extender/AV Receiver/Video Splitters 1080-3840x2160@60H

I purchased this EDID emulator in hopes of fixing compatibility problems between the Marseille mClassic and my ViewSonic monitor, and it set them straight. A little background: the Marseille mClassic is a video scaler with post-processing effects for older to modern consoles, and it works rather well. However, Marseille chose to make the device as simple to use as possible, with no user configuration whatsoever. It's strictly plug and play, with the mClassic reading your display device's EDID table to configure and choose its output resolution. Well, I learned from this 'hands off' approach to configuration that not all TV and monitor EDID tables are created equally: my ViewSonic XG3220 monitor, while supporting basically any and every resolution up to 4K, doesn't have a proper EDID table to save its life. So the result was strange and limited functionality of the mClassic, with resolution outputs of 3820x1080 and poor handling of the aspect ratio of the resulting video. However, this little device cleared all of that right up. I connected it in-line to my monitor from the mClassic, and now the device is pumping out a standard 1920x1080p signal that the monitor likes just fine (even from the Retro mode/blue light operation, which was where I had most of the problems before). I'm still not getting the 1440p output the mClassic claims it's capable of handling, in spite of the fact that this EDID emulator supports 1440p in its table and my monitor is able to support that resolution, but I suspect that's the fault of Marseille's little device and not with this EDID emulator. So if you're having similar issues like I described with your mClassic, pick up this adapter and you'll be good to go!

Worked with my son's Nintendo Switch dock to display on our 27" Apple Cinema Display as well as my 2010 27" iMac in Target Display Mode. For whatever reason the Switch dock refused to display anything on either monitor, but worked fine with every other TV in the house. The only options on the Switch dock are Automatic and 480p when connected to these monitors and neither display anything. Using the 4K version of this device, the switch dock sees the options for 720p and 1080p. Unfortunately the 1080p doesn't work, but the 720p setting works perfectly. No idea why these monitors don't accept 1080p with this device, but Apple is quirky. An HDMI splitter will likely also work, but this is alot simpler since it doesn't require and extra power cord.

Solved a problem involving an old Samsung LCDTV and a no-name ledlightbox from aliexpress/china. The Led Lightbox would work perfectly in all tv's but not on samsung. An AI recommended using this HDMI adapter after the IPTV box, so tha the signal would be "cleansed" when going into the Led Lightbox. This solved the issue instantly. Thank you so much evanlak!

I used it for a KVM situation to avoid Windows changing layout every time I flip the KVM. That worked but lots of pixels were the wrong color - unacceptable.

I have about 6 of these and they all work. I use them for my headless stream machines i connect into remotely or where i need to have an EDID and lock on the screen so if i reset my computer or capture device the game monitor doesn't flicker during handshake. That's important if your streaming an event. My other use is in a headless computer where if i need them to plug in a confidence monitor to the machine they just plug the monitor into this and it doesn't re-negotiate or do any funky screen changes since this is just a pass through. The biggest problem is the metal housing slides off. 100% of them have done that to me. but we just slide them back on or tape them but that's my only complaint.

The evanlak is a very durable HDMI emulator. With constant hours of heat and exhaust fan on, it has never skipped a beat. I have never had a problem with connection no artifacts or anything. For the purpose I use it it serves me well and I'm sure it has a million of other uses for people. I recommend the adapter to anyone due to its durability and reliability good buy.

This product solved my HDMI handshake issues between my Samsung TV and PS5. At times my TV would not recognize the PS5 as powered on. In cases where I turned on the PS5 without powering on the TV, the PS5 would hang with the pulsing blue light, power itself off, and next boot post a software issue. Those problems stopped.

I bought this because I have two external monitors that are exactly the same make and model. My Mac Mini therefore sometimes switches things from one display to another, like it's confused because they have the same exact name. Maybe that's not the reason at all but this was an inexpensive way to test solving that. Day one results are great. After plugging it into my monitor and then the cable into the adapter, I only had to go into my display settings and change the refresh rate. Now, my Mac sees two different monitors. No problems at all. Will update the review if things change for the worse.

O produto não funciona caso você queira usar eles para adaptar a entrada HDMI em um KVM, simplesmente mão funciona

que funciona.es ideal.SI TIENES DUDAS PREGUNTA.

El dispositivo funciona desactivando HDCP primero. No tuve ningún problema. En mi caso mi monitor es un ASUS VG27AQ y aunque es 1440p puede recibir señal 4K. Para el play con el adaptador no tiene ningún problema en correr juegos a 120fps. Ya probé con Dirt5 y Rainbow Six. Sí baja la resolución pero es lo que debe de hacer, no es por limitante del adaptador ni porque tu display no sea HDMI 2.1. Simplemente es lo más que puede hacer el Play5. Aunque en el menú del Play siempre diga 4K, los juegos con high frame rate la cambian cuando ya estas dentro del juego. Eso sí... también se puede jugarlos a 4K y 60FPS.

Yeah awesome, works. I used this on a Voidlinux laptop on XFCE connected by a KVM. When switching to the laptop it NEVER used to work, but now it switches perfectly. It's important to put this adaptor on the MONITOR end of the cable, not the COMPUTER end...

Ce petit adapteur m’a sorti d’une situation impossible. J’ai acheté récemment une Sony Bravia x90j. Sont branchés dessus une Sonos Beam gen1 via HDMI ARC, un ordinateur Mac, une box tv orange et une PS5. Pour une raison encore un peu mystérieuse la télé après allumage ne recevait pas le signal HDMI du Mac. La seule chose à faire était de retirer et rebrancher le port HDMI (du Mac donc). Et bien grâce a cet adaptateur entre le Mac et la TV tout est réglé. Et en bonus j’ai le support du 120hz en 1080p. Je me suis vraiment pris la tête sur le problème et j’ai tout testé. Du câble HDMI hors de prix en passant par tout les réglages possibles et autres adaptateurs. Et c’est vraiment la seule solution fiable et 100% compatible que j’ai pu trouvé. L’autre solution consistait passer par la sortie fibre audio vers HDMI vers sonos. Mais auquel cas il faut passer la télécommande en IR pour que ça fonctionne avec Sonos, et en IR la télécommande ne marche plus avec la box orange… bref mon problème était peut être spécifique à mes appareils combinés mais l’adapteur m’a sauvé et peut être qu’il vous sauvera aussi …
