SOLVED : Wacom Cintiq 13HD "No input signal" - HDMI compatibility issue
Posted: Thu 15. Nov 2018, 20:23
SOLVED: as alway we just have to fix it ourselves...they just sell and make profits. Yes , it was a HDMI compatibility issue between Cintiq and 2 HP ENVY laptops. How they manage to do it , beats me...If u buy a laptop and a wacom tablet and spend over 2k , they will tell you "of course it is going to work, you have hdmi ports on both , just connect them"...Easy, yes ? Not really !
Anway , the solution it was to buy on Amazon 4 different HDMI splitters , different brands. From 4, i got 2 that solved the problem instantly. Just place them between laptop and tablet. Laptop output , tablet input. the ones that worked are really cheap, like 7 or 8 euros each. And they did the job ! Thanks

hello,
i've got 4 notebooks : 2 older ( hpdv7 and Acer) and 2 newer model ( envy 360 touchscreen and envy 17 j000eb )
Also i've got a Wacom Cintiq 13HD tablet . My problem is that , with the older laptops the tablet works perfect ( so it is not a faulty tablet ! ) but with the newer ones i get black screen on my tablet and a messege "no input signal" and it is not detected as a secondary display ! the HDMI ports on both new notebooks are working also because i have them connected to 2 TV's and they are working just fine ! no faulty hdmi !
So : i've got a working tablet and 2 working notebooks but i can't make them work together !!! Black screen on tablet, not secondary display on laptops ! Not a driver problem because the tablet does'nt need a driver for the display . Remains only the compatibility between the HDMI's...
But how is this my fault ? or any other comsumer's fault ? IT IS NOT!! where are the infos about the hdmi port ? nowhere! if you reed the specs , u will only see : 1 HDMI port . Yes but what version ? What version of HDCP ( antipiracy protection )do you use ? How do u expect the normal guy to know if the product they are buying (and they are not cheap !) is going to work like it is supposed to ?
How do i solve the problem ? what do i have to do ? any ideea ? thank you
