How to use

If audio is expected, verify in the operating system’s sound settings that the HDMI output is selected as the playback device.

Recommendations

For stable operation, use a high-quality HDMI cable and ensure the source device supports audio over DisplayPort if audio output is needed. When using high resolutions or refresh rates, verify that both the source and the display support the desired settings and adjust the graphics output accordingly.
