Yes, but with my big screen tv and it worked in either VGA or DVI settings. I use the mirror image. You may want to play with different resolutions and maybe recalibrate also since you're using a monitor.
Hope this helps.

Thanks Jim for the replay, I'm trying to connect to a 55" LG OLED TV, once connected,
no signal coming from SD90 at all, I've try different resolutions and nothing.
What brand of cable have you been use it?

Hi.
Just a thought....
TV usually have several inputs, did you remember to check what input the TV read,
or swap the incoming source at the TV to the connected line in?
Also some cables and adapters have half and not full duplex, but if that
is something that matters in your case, I have no knowledge about.

It's an unbranded dvi-d male to HDMI male cable from eBay. Link is missing now. You can find other unbranded it branded ones.

I've try different cables: half duplex, full duplex DVI-D male to HDMI male, connecting
to HDMI/DVI input on my TV, and setting on SD-90-Menu-Monitor-DVI Monitor-Mirror, trying diferent resolutions, than restart SD-90, after restarting, TV 55" LG OLED showing "No signal detected" It seems to me that there's something wrong with the OS. I hope that the resolutions in SD-90 Monitor setting are comparable with the Australian system.
Has any one try to connecting SD-9 to external monitor? I believe SD-9 settings are the same as SD-90 settings. Any help will be appreciated.

Did you also look into your TV's menu to see if it's reading from the input your cable is connected to?
I'm thinking of that possibility because I've helped a friend some time ago, where 'no signal' was due
to the TV did read from an other source (input). After swap in-source at TV, everything was fine.

Yes, as GJ says, check your TV's HDMI input source. Be sure you selected the right one. You may want to try other monitor too.

Jim, and GJ.
Thank you for you response, I've connected SD-90 to another Tv monitor and it's working perfectly, seems to me that SD-90 does't like LG Tv's at all.

Cheers

My pleasure Dan. It's just strange about the LG tvs incompatibility.

Good you got it working, but as Jim say, the LG 'bug' is a bit strange.
Have fun.
