HDMI to USB-C alt-mode support

[hungductdm]

Hello,

I have an external monitor (touch screen) which only has USB-C alt mode ports. It has been a pain for me connecting to any devices (desktop, raspberry pi, mini PC, etc.) I wonder if Spacedesk can be used to transfer pure video signal (and maybe touch signal) from HDMI (PC, R.Pi) to an external monitor (USB-C)? Or perhaps from USB-A (PC) to USB-C (external monitor)?

I understand that the external monitor has no OS so it is likely not possible, but if there’s a way, it would be totally awesome.

Thank you.
Duc

Hi @hungductdm,

Yes, it’s not possible to use an external monitor as secondary machine (it requires to have an operating system e.g. Windows, Android, etc.. to be able to install the spacedesk Viewer app).
Current spacedesk BETA version does not support HDMI/USB-C connection. It operates over local area network connection only.
For more info, please check system requirements chapter in the user manual https://forum.spacedesk.netuser-manual/.
