It's running Linux Mint. I was trying to run it headless, but I noticed that if I didn't have it hooked up to a monitor, I couldn't use VNC to remote into it. I tried to find a software solution to fix this, and it sounds like software solutions do exist for this problem, but they're janky one-offs that seem to work differently for everybody and are not straightforward to implement. But as I was googling, somebody mentioned a product like this. It's tiny little thingy you plug into your HDMI port to fake out your computer and make it think a monitor is attached. Works like a charm. I just had to plug it in, and bingo, VNC remote connections work every time, like magic. It was less than $10, and it saved me from hours of googling obscure Linux stuff. Review: nice - still works after 1 year. gives off a nice blue light when turned on so it's good for a chromebox when there's literally no other lights on the box to indicate that the thing is on or off if you don't like the light you can probably tape a piece of paper or something over it ## Features - AMAZING HDMI dongle gives full remote VNC display size and quality for any remote connected monitor and forces the Mac to use the GPU rather than using the CPU. removes all VNC lag and improves performance massively! - the DTK Select resolutions up to 3840*2160 ,work fine with big sur beta 3 onwards increases the amount of work space available for development work - Accessing Multiple Screen Resolutions on a Macbook Pro Retina Using an HDMI Display Emulator,allowing to run a remote desktop in the spare room as a sever/general workhors - without a monitor is something like 640x400, which is too small to even interact with Windows. connected this display emulator and get 3840x1920 resolution now when remoting into the system! without a monitor is something like 640x400, which is too small to even interact with Windows. connected this display emulator and get 3840x1920 resolution now when remoting into the system! - no drivers or config needed download any software or configure the unraid server just plug in adjust resolution and connect .Works great as intended!built-in blue Light ,have any questions please contact us 24 hours .

It’s only good for testing purposes or things like virtual machines and cryptocurrency mining. **Q: Does mini DP version support 1920x1200 resolution?** A: As the product description says, up to 4K or 1080@60Hz-3840x2160@17Hz **Q: Can it emulato resolution between 2560x1440 1920x1220? I want to get 2200x1230 but close to it is acceptable.** A: As far as I know, yes. I use this to make the output for VR 4K. All the TVs I have are 1080, so I bought this to use for VR. In the computer, the resolution is 4K, and you can change it to whichever resolution you want it to output 4k or below **Q: Can this be use to project from a windows laptop to the projector that accepts hdmi input?** A: No. As the name describes, this is a Dummy (having the appearance of being real) Plug. It's sole purpose is to Emulate (make it look like) an HDMI device (e.g. HDTV, computer monitor), not to actually be one. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for a headless computer *by D***N on July 6, 2023* I have a little mini PC that I purchased to act as a media server in my house.
