Roxio Gamecap Hd Pro Hdmi To Dvi-D Setup Problems

[DeleteAndRepeat]

Hi,

 

I tried to look up a solution for my problem, searched alot of threads, tried what people said in there, couldn't find a solution.

 

So here's my setup:

 

Xbox 360 Slim => HDMI Cable => GameCap HD PRO => HDMI Cable => HDMI to DVI => Screen (Acer x233h bd)

 

and of course

 

GameCap HD PRO => USB => Notebook

 

 

Alternative setup was:

 

... GameCap HD PRO => HDMI to DVI => DVI Cable => Screen

 

 

I get a signal in my GameCapture Software, the quality is great and I can record without any problems.

However, I don't get a signal on my Screen.

 

My screen supports HDCP and has a DVI-D Input.

 

Connecting my XBOX directly to my Screen always worked without any problems, I also tried to use different resolutions in the XBOX Dashboard, never got a signal.

So I tried to connect the GameCap HD PRO directly to a HDMI TV (GameCap HD PRO => HDMI Cable => TV) and it worked.

 

So, from the info I gathered so far, it should work, but it doesn't.

 

I'd be thankful for any help I can get.

I just looked up the DVI differences, mine seem to be DVI-D Dual Link.

These ones worked without any problems when connecting my XBOX to my screen without the GameCap.

I could try to use a DVI-D Single Link if I find one.

Are you sure the Monitor supports HDCP, as the RGC Output adds HDCP Coding?.

 

Also, some HDMI to DVI converters/adapters/cables are not HDCP compliant..

It says so in several Datasheets I checked

Thanks for your replys, I got it to work.

 

Tried a HDMI Cable with a DVI-D Single Link output, didn't work.

Then got a Splitter, 1 Output to the Card, 1 to my Screen, works like a charm.

 

Looks like the easiest and fastest way to get it to work is a Splitter (when your Screen only has DVI input).

Using the HDMI to DVI-D Single Link cable for my screen on the Splitter.

Unless it works right out of the gate like mine did with a HDMI - DVI-D adapter

 

But with 5 different DVI "standards" and HDCP rolled in... the odds of failure are greater than the odds of success

 

Interesting that in spite of all your research into specs, in the end it did not work. - not your fault just reflects the amount of BS out there
