HP Envy 360 Laptop

I am connecting one monitor to the HDMI portal. I need to connect another monitor through a USB-C to HDMI adaptor and it will not recognize the adaptor. Both monitors work when the hdmi is connected directly to the laptop, but neither works when using the usb port

@spachek Welcome to HP Forums Community! There's a few things you need to know about using the USB Type-C with adapters on video converters:

USB Type-C video modes (Alternate mode): USB Type-C ports support adapters that can output different types of video such as HDMI, VGA, and DisplayPort, all from one USB Type-C port on your computer or device.

 

For more information about USB Type-C, see USB Type-C Cable and Connector Specification (in English).
