I have the following problem.
I have a laptop that only has 1 hdmi connection but wants to connect it to 2 screens.
But it should not be mirrored but expanded so that I see something different on each screen.
Is that possible?
And if so, what do I need for it.
No, you can't. Most laptops allow you to connect an external monitor in addition to the integrated display, but not several.
You would have to buy a so-called HDMI splitter (1 in, 2 out). This additional device is available from Amazon for just under 14 euro. You connect the device to the HDMI port of your PC and then get two new connections, one connection for each monitor.
Here is a link to Amazon with a selection of devices:
Yes, I've already tried that.
But then I only mirrored the image from the laptop on the 2 monitors, but I want to extend the screen or can it be changed somehow?
What do you mean by "expand"? The image of the laptop should be shown on one monitor and on the other? What should be visible there?
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣… Don't be angry, do you have anything to do with computers?
No that doesn't work.
Or you have a Thunderbolt (USB-C port).
Your comment is not helpful. It's not about being angry, which is completely nonsense, but about a factual question about the questioner's still open problem. Obviously, there's no suitable answer in the community for the question posed here, as the above answers to the question show.
Well, something different should be displayed on each screen, for example on the laptop Facebook is on. I play on monitor and on monitor 2 I have an Internet page on. I mean by expanding that.
Yes, I have a USB-C connection I already bought an adapter from USB-C to HDMI but it doesn't recognize it. But if I connect it to the cell phone it works.
Are there perhaps also differences?
Yes, the USB-c must explicitly support this. You have to read this in your manual or on the manufacturer's website.
Press the Windows key + P (project), then the 3rd setting "Advanced" probably didn't work either? If this is the case, it is a pity that I was unable to help you.
Yes, unfortunately that doesn't help either
