Can I use HDMI and VGA at the same time?
-
I have one VGA output computer and one HDMI output computer and one screen with HDMI and VGA input. Previously this screen was connected to two VGA computers through a VGA switch. Question: If i keep both HDMI and VGA cable plugged in the screen at the same time and both computers are ON, what happens to the screen? Because what I want is work on the HDMI and from time to time use the VGA through the switch (for keyboard and mouse). Does it damage to the screen? Can I control which signal goes in? My screen has no picture in picture.

Answer:
If u got one screen and u want to see 2 digital source on the same time via pic on pic option, you CANT. Pic on Pic option can display one digital source and one analog. So if u want 2 computer 1 screen with pic on pic, u should use convert box "vga to av" or hdmi to av. Not the best results but good enoght. Altho lg screen can only t.v with the "dual link up" option.

Sounds like you got it to work, but you might one day consider using a KVM Switch.A KVM switch allows you to use two computers, and two consoles (mouse and keyboard set) with a single monitor-- KVM stands for Keyboard, Video, Mouse.

Solved. I can have both cables and both computers on and change the signal priority on the screen. It is not very comfortable to use the screen menu, but it works.
