    Mi Notebook Pro X (1x Thunderbolt port) - 2x portable monitors?

    So I have a mi notebook pro x which has 1x TB port I have an ASUS screen now that uses the TB port for alt DP via USB c cable. If I want to buy another portable monitor like the MB16ACE, is it possible to power this and the other screen at once from the laptop? Or from a mains power? Thanks!

    [???] use USB C monitor without USB C?

    Just to add, the USB A to USB-C cable from laptop to Wacom also randomly stops charging the laptop, similar to usin the non PD USB-C port on the laptop, i guess it's related to the power of the laptop output because it doesn't occur when powering the wacom from the wall plug adapter.

    For the HDMI input, so far I've only had issues when turning the brightness up on the screen. If the brightness is low i didn't experience any problems but when i put it to 100% i just had the scren turn black. To power the Wacom I've tried the following with success: - USB A to USB-C cable...

    [???] use USB C monitor without USB C?

    So i got it working with both methods i mentioned in my last post! Thanks a lot for your help, sorry for asking a lot of questions but this whole power delivery/USB-C/displayport signal stuff is hard for me to grasp. I am interested to stay up to date and get a better understanding, where would...

    Thanks! I think i have a better understanding now So i've ordered the Wacom Link Plus and will try the following 1. Hdmi direct from laptop to Wacom Link Plus, then USB-C to USB-C cable that passes displayport signal from Wacom Link Plus to the screen. 2. Displayport to mini-DisplayPort cable...

    Does the displayport to mini displayport have to be bidirectional or can it be any type? How would the screen receive power if it's not using USB-C? I saw your post in #161 said to use the wacom with an HDMI to USB-C cable directly to the screen but i am not sure how i can get it to work with...

    Correct. Most USB Type C to DisplayPort cables only allowed DisplayPort signals to originate from the USB-C end (not from the DisplayPort end). Thanks, it seems to show the same results. There are 2 bidirectional from startech but they take 1m+ for delivery for some reason

    Thanks! I am a bit confused with the cable type. In England the cable you linked to is £50 which is half the price of the screen which is a bit much for me. When i do a search on Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=bidirectional+USB-C+to+DisplayPort+cable&i=computers&ref=nb_sb_noss it seems...

    Thanks for the reply! Very much appreciate the help. I checked the adapters you sent but it seems they have a displayport cable/port but the screen only takes a single USB-C connector.
