Dell All-in-One HDMI problem
Hello again, it's been a while since I needed advice from the experts through 7 and 10 Forums.
We recently acquired a Dell All-in-One. Nice budget computer. I have completed all the updates and exporting from our old upright under-desk computer. This took several days as I am no techie, evidenced when I describe the current problem.
I must have spent 4 days attempting to get the Dell to recognise our Panasonic TV as a second display, something which was a doddle on the old computer.
Completely frustrated, we carted the whole lot back to Currys and asked why the computer does not recognise the TV. Within a minute, Currys gently explained the HDMI port on the Dell is only a HDMI IN.
Suffice it to say, we were shocked.
One of our joys, being pensioners, is watching YouTube videos on our Panasonic TV but now we are stuck.
Currys suggested we purchase a Microsoft v.2 Wureless Display Adapter but would have to order:

We know the Dell wifi is functioning as it found our bluetooth speakers.
Is anyone able to confirm that this solution is satisfactory?
