DP to HDMI issues
Posted: Mon Oct 06, 2025 16:34
I just built a computer with an RTX 5070 - this has DP2.1b and HDMI 2.1 outputs. The TVs I am trying to input into has HDMI 2.0 ports. Resolution is 3840x2160 60hz. The end game is to run into two TVs at this resolution using separate DP ports and a computer monitor (HDMI) - plus eventually output to a lower res projector.
This is not going well. I've purchased a few different DP to HDMI adapters that are supposed to support 4K UHD - but these do not work. The other part of this is that I want to build a patch panel, so the ports on the computer are not being plugged in and out all the time.....This is a gigging rig. Cannot find components that support this. Either I get no signal, or the screen is flickering off and on.
Does anyone know of a professional solution to this mixmash of different specs? I cannot afford to move up to TVs with DP inputs - its significantly more expensive, and then not much is actually supporting the DP2.1b spec yet anyway.
Ideas, suggestions, advice - all most appreciated....Thanks.
