EVanlak HDMI Plugs Headless Premium Aluminium Display Emulator Light Revelation Dummy Plug Headless Ghost Machines Fit Anyone with a Headless GUI Server 1920x1080@60Hz Pack of 3

I needed one of these as I was setting up a headless Ubuntu installation. To allow a remote desktop connection, the computer needed a monitor plugged in, as the remote session replicates what's on that monitor. I didn't want to use a monitor, as the device is tucked into a small cabinet. This handy little device tricks the computer into thinking a monitor is connected, thereby allowing me to remote to it without a physical monitor being attached.Bargain price, too.

If you are looking at this, I assume you are trying to set up some kind of remote access where you need a display connected, such as sunshine/moonlight. I can confirm this works great for that purpose. I had my machine running with a hdmi monitor connection, simply unplugged the monitor and plugged this in and everything just continued to work.

I use this as I have 2 computers. One of which is in a different location so I use my main PC to remote desktop into my second one. For applications like VNC viewer, this is a must-get as you cannot use their remote desktop as a headless PC. This dongle enables you to do that as it mimics a display being connected. Also helps even with programs like Parsec that have virtual display adapter built in. Just helps with keeping the machine running properly once you disconnect.

I have robot dog that's controlled by a Raspberry pi. If a Raspberry pi boots up without a monitor Attached it will not boot into the graphical interface, which means they're is no screen to remote desktop into. This little plug makes the rpi boot into it's desktop graphical interface when no monitor is attached. Simple and fairly elegant solution

My intention was to use this so Linux can have a fake display, so I can play games with my monitors plugged into my intel graphics and use nvidia prime to make games use my nvidia card. I'll probably try out GPU passthrough too in the near future, though I haven't yet. I'm also using Intel graphics because, I'd also like to try Wayland, and nvidia sucks for Wayland. It seems to be working well for my use caseTo get it to work on boot without unplugging and replugging it in, I had to set my BIOS to use NVIDIA graphics, and then turn off my monitors connected to the Intel graphics. Then I had to wait about 10-15 seconds when I thought GRUB bootloader had loaded, and then pressed enter. Then my keyboard lights flashed off and on again, which is how I knew I'd done it.Then type in my password (I use sddm, so don't have to click anything), and then load up settings or a terminal and just use xrandr to set everything up. I'd suggest having it in your .bashrc, or however you like to start stuff

Dell Optiplex 7050 with AMT - couldn't access the interface when no monitor was plugged in. "Get one of these thingies," somone says.By golly, they were right. Apparently this fools the GPU into thinking it should be doing something, which AMT needs? No idea, but it works.

Very cheap and effective dummy HDMI plug. I use NVIDIA gamestreaming from my pc to a Shield TV pro and using this dummy port allows me to achieve this without an actual monitor connected and turned on.It cuts down on power usage and is convenient.Out of the box, windows will only detect it as 1080p 60Hz as the maximum resolution. To get higher resolutions, if you have an nvidia gpu, you have to set a custom resolution in nvidia control panel. After that restart pc and it should override that 1080p 60Hz limitation.

Using this on a machine running Ubuntu that I mainly only access via VNC not a real monitor .This makes the machine think there is still a monitor attached so VNC works properly

Perfect

Ich habe die HDMI Dummys seit einigen Monaten im Einsatz und sie funktionieren einwandfrei und zuverlässig.

Je suis extrêmement satisfait de mon achat du dummy plug.Cet article a résolu un problème auquel je faisais face avec ma configuration informatique. La qualité de construction est bonne.Il s'insère parfaitement dans le port et fonctionne comme décrit, sans aucun problème de compatibilité.Grâce à ce dummy plug, j'ai pu simuler la présence d'un moniteur connecté à ma carte graphique, ce qui a résolu mes problèmes de détection et de performances. C'est un petit investissement qui a eu un impact énorme sur l'efficacité de mon système, et je le recommande vivement à tous ceux qui rencontrent des problèmes similaires.

M'a enfin permis de me connecter à distance en haute résolution sur un serveur Windows sans écran.

Tengo un mini PC sin monitor, al que accedo de manera remota y el formato y resolución de pantalla cambiaba haciendo imposible interactuar con él. UN amigo me habló de este producto y por ello me decidí a adquirir este producto.Al conectarlo a la clavija HDMI, emula y hace creer al PC que tiene un monitor conectado, evitando el cambio de resolución.Excelente relación calidad precio y perfecta funcionalidad.
