Hello
I have a problem with my sp4 + dock.
1 1080p monitor connected to the dock with a (cheap/
ebay) mDP to HDMI adapter works fine.
Now i bought a second 1080p screen and stuff gets weird. Sometimes it connects them both, but most of the time it stays trying and flashing the screens.
Once everything works, it is stable until the next reboot/dock disconnect.
I already found in other posts that i need an active adapters because hdmi needs a clock and mDP doesn't. (or the dock supports just 1 clock)
But why does it works somethimes if there is just 1 clock for 2 monitors? Do I need to be lucky to sync the 2 monitors?
All screens/calbles/adapters work individually in all kinds of combinations.
Another thing i tried: using 1 mDP to DVI and 1 to HDMI. This works most of the time, but also not always. Also there are weird green pixels on the screen (That could be the adapter)
I hope i get some help before spending even more money on 2 expensive adapters.
Thanks
Philippe
