What does this exactly mean? I have an USB-C 4x1 Hub with HDMI that works at the same time as using 2 x USB-A 3.0, 1 x USB-C. Thanks!
- izacus 3y agoIt means that your hub uses DisplayPort to talk to the computer and then has a converter chip to convert to HDMI. Pretty much noone used HDMI Alt Mode on USB-C and is now deprecated IIRC.
- wolfhumble 3y agoOkay, thanks!
- justsomehnguy 3y agoReminds me of Ethernet over HDMI.
