can I use this to connect samsung TV (HDMI) to my PC(VGA)?

Yes you can. I can't remember if it comes with an HDMI cable, so you may need to purchase separately.

I think it should be fine. the only connection is between your lap top VGA outlet to Samsung HDMI input. I wish you make it.

Yes, You can connect the HDMI output of your PC to the HDMI input of your TV or projector.It does not have a VGA input. Set VGAIN@1080 FullHD for correct resolutionGood Luck

MANUFACTURER ANSWER: Just to clarify regarding this question, the cable will only work going from an HDMI output source to a VGA input. So if your PC has HDMI output and your TV has VGA input, it's likely this will work. If it's the other way around (VGA output to HDMI input) it will not work.

no, the hdmi input on your pc is an output. you would need to buy another device.

No, this will not do what you are attempting. You either need to get a USB to VGA adapter that will allow your PC to output its video via the USB and then a cable to connect the VGA end of the adapter to the VGA input on your TV. Not sure what sort of computer you are using, but I've never seen one that doesn't either have a VGA output or come with a converter to allow VGA output (unless it is a slim Chromebook or similar).

No vga port but if your pc has an hdmi port I'd highly recommend using a hdmi rather than a vga connection. Hdmi is as good as a vga connection

Bought mine for the other way around - PC graphics card had HDMI and I wanted to connect to an old VGA monitor. It worked but it may not work for PC VGA out to TV HDMI in. I reference the product description where it says "HDMI to VGA / RCA cable is designed to connect and transfer signals from HDMI port to VGA / RCA port". It doesn't specifically call out a reverse capability. It's so cheap however and has free shipping that you could take a chance and find our for yourself.

That is the purpose of this cable, so as long as your HDMI is female and your VGA is male, there shouldn't be a problem. I shouldn't have bought this connector because I do not have an HDMI port (at the time, my Dell Inspiron Mini docking station was on its way, and I mistakenly thought it had an HDMI port). You probably already know you can't plug an HDMI adapter into a USB port!

No. Its meant to go from vga to hdmi. It takes the signal from anolog to digital. There are converters out there for what you want to do.

No. This will go to the monitor VGA input alright but hooks up to the computers USB port. You need to be running Windows.

I doubt it. While HDMI supports audio, VGA does not. I use this to go to an external monitor. But, I need to use a USB connection to go to my external speakers.

Greg:I just remembered, in the quick set up manual there is a diagram for hooking up your computer to the Samsung using an HDMI cable. This assumes you have an HDMI output on your computer. This would give you the highest quality resolution on the set ( it will still be limited to 1440 by 900 though). There is opinion out there that you would be hard pressed to tell the differnce between VGA and HDMI at that resolution. You could try both and see which looks best.

I don't see why not - I'm taking the HDMI output of my PC to a DVI input on a projector with no issues.

I don't see why not.....It is VGA......but I did run into trouble with what I refer to as a "Tablet".....not on this monitor but thru a projector that has VGA....well these smaller "Tablets".....want HDMI.....and then even wanted to be converted down to a smaller input connection......I don't know if this helps???

I don't think so as a VGA, however you can connect your PC, I'm not the best person to ask, as I'm not to Tech smart, learning, but not there yet. Sorry, I couldn't be of more help to you. I can tell you it's a great TV. Good Luck.

no you would still need a convertor to convert the analog vga signal to the hdmi digital signal, this cable cannot do it alone without a convertor or a very limited type of vga card that converts it for you
