Diamond Multimedia BVU3500H USB/USB-C/TB3 to DVI/HDMI Video Graphics Adapter, Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8, 7, XP, MAC OS and Android 5.0+

There are many reviews here for different Diamond Multimedia display adapters, but there weren't any for the one I bought. I bought the dual HDMI adapter (BVU5500HS2). It works with both USB 2.0 and 3.0. It also works with USB A or USB C (using the included adapter). One HDMI port is labeled 2K (for 1080p) and the other is labeled 4K. It does not support two 4K monitors on the same adapter, but you can buy another adapter to use a second 4K monitor. I don't have a 4K monitor, but I do have the adapter connected up to two 1080p monitors and it works great. I have the adapter connected to a USB 2.0 port on a Windows 11 desktop and didn't need to install any drivers for it. It was plug and play. I have a third monitor connected up to the built-in HDMI port. After connecting the monitors, all I had to do is go into Windows display settings and chose my monitor layout for extending the display.Here are a couple of things I noticed about the display adapter. When waking up my computer it takes the display adapter an extra second or two to wake up than the built-in HDMI port. It functions the same as the built-in HDMI port after its up. No problems displaying videos. I don't play games so I can't comment on game play. Audio plays fine from the adapter, but if you have two monitors connected to it it will play audio on both monitors at the same time. You cannot choose audio to play only on one monitor, but you can always turn the volume down on one monitor itself if you don't want to hear it on both. I have external speakers connected directly to my computer, so audio doesn't play over any of my monitors.Diamond says you can connect up to six of these adapters to a total of six monitors on a single computer. If you are using 1080p monitors, you would only need three of the adapters for six monitors. Adding this video USB adapter is cheaper and easier than installing an internal video card.

This BVU 3500H device works as advertised. I plugged it in to an HP Envy 23 computer on a USB 3.0 port to connect it via HDMI to my Onkyo stereo receiver (which passes the HDMI video to my projector). I needed this adaptor since the E23's HDMI port is only HDMI in, not HDMI out. DO NOT get other Diamond devices which only adapt to HDMI video if you have a set-up like mine: you need the native HDMI support to pass audio through (others will only pass video).The box come with a HDMI to DVI adaptor which I didn't use. It includes a short cable to go from a standard computer USB A to one of those odd extra-wide Micro-B USB 3.0 ports on the BVU3500H. The other end of the BVU3500H has a standard female HDMI port.It also came with an installation disk and a marginally helpful instruction booklet. Since I have Windows 10, it turns out I didn't need to install anything (it was plug and play -- Windows immediately recognized a secondary monitor). The instruction booklet only covered earlier versions of Windows and Mac instructions (it would have saved me a little time if it had said "don't bother reading this if you have Win10").My little guy and I watched a movie on it last night and it worked great. I can't speak to device longevity at this time, but it has an attractive, small case and looks like a quality build.

I purchased this to connect my Google Pixel Pro 8 to my TV, and it does work. However, my primary intention was to use it with my YouTube TV subscription, but that was a failure. I'm not sure if that is because YouTube TV is somehow blocking it, or what?

Brilliant product. I could not be happier.I downloaded the Max OS X drivers from the Web site - http://www.displaylink.com/downloads/index.php, and they installed quickly and easily. After a reboot, I plugged in the adapter, turned on the third monitor (I already had a monitor on the display port), configured the Display Arrangement, and went back to work with the extra real estate. The Displaylink Web site has lots of information on how to configure your particular system.I'm using this on an older Macbook Pro, with USB 2.0, so there is a slight latency on the monitor running through the Diamond adapter. This is a fault of the computer, not the adapter - it will work much better on a newer computer with 3.0 Since I do most of my work on the monitor connected to the Display Port, with no latency, this poses no problem to me at all. I use the third monitor as extra real estate for folders and tool bars, so it's fine. When I get a newer Macbook Pro, it will use the USB 3.0 port.

It saved me a couple of times ‘cause my gpu stop working and thanks to this usb device I still could see the desktop and fix things

The media could not be loaded. Si tienes un Yamaha Genos y quieres tener un monitor conectado a tu teclado, este dispositivo BVU165 es compatible. No soy de andar haciendo videos, pero esto lo amerita por si le darás el mismo uso, sabrás que es compatible y funciona de maravilla. En mi caso lo conecté a un monitor Lenovo por DVI.

Anteriormente había comprado otros productos para extender el monitor de mi laptop para trabajar. La mayoría se veían mal, o se calentaban mucho y luego comenzaban a parpadear. Llegue a pensar que era el cable o el conector del monitor el que estaba mal. Este en cuanto lo conecté funcionó sin problemas auto-ajustándose. Los colores se ven muy bien. Lo tengo en una Laptot MSI con windows 11

Estou plenamente satisfeito com o produto. Obrigado pela excelência no atendimento, mais uma vez.

It worked beautifully and very easy to install and setup. Great product.

I have used it to connect a monitor to my Yamaha SX900 keyboard (which can only cope with USB2). it works perfectly with Samsung 28" and HP 22". No setting up required, and only USB/USB cables used.Very pleased.
