What about shipping an adaptor? DP to HDMI for the transition?
Can dp even translate to HDMI with a "dumb" adapter?
yes, i have a dp to hdmi 2.1 cable that cost like 35€. it works fine except each time i get up from my chair the screen flashes white. and no VRR.
I have a 25ft HDMI cable that works fine for everything except sometimes when I open a new tab in Firefox, the screen temporarily goes blank/no-signal for a couple seconds. Also sometimes when the dryer turns on.
my friend has had this issue for years, when he turns on a fan his monitor turns off for a second
