Alright, have a bit of a crazy conversion going on here and could use some assistance figuring out what is going on.
We have a setup of HDMI -> HDMI splitter -> LCD tv. It works perfectly. Now, the issue comes that some laptops will not have HDMI, so we had to use a setup of (please don't hit me. Not the face, it's my meal ticket...) VGA -> DVI adapter to DVI -> HDMI adapter -> HDMI splitter -> TV. I know it's a crazy setup... but it should work, right? I know there will be a bottleneck, but we HAVE to be able to go from VGA -> HDMI, in some rare cases.
Can anyone think of a reason why this might not work? As I said before: HDMI -> Splitter -> TV is working.
And I did try fn + F8. It forced the laptop to say it was displaying via VGA, but the splitter did not detect the input.
Any suggestions would be great!
