3rd party HDMI to lightning connector

There are not a lot of companies who make this product. Apple makes one and otherwise, I would trust the reviews on Amazon. I see one by EasternPin that looks promising. If you can find one by Insignia or Belkin I would get that one.

There are two of them. I was talking about this one: Amazon.com: Lighting to HDMI, Lighting to HDMI Adapter, Lightning Digital AV Adapter, with Lightning Charging Port, Comp…. It has 93% 5 star ratings.

Hi Phagehage. I second the advice of Csound1. This adapter is actually a computer that converts an H.264 video stream to HDMI digital video. Any clone would have to clone the Apple software, and there are bound to be compatibility issues. Buy the Apple device.

Lightning Digital AV Adapter - Lightning to HDMI - Apple

Did you actually read the reviews for the EasternPin cable, I hope that the OP does.

And is not MFI certified for use with an Apple, have you actually tried it, or do you not care whether or not it will work?

To the OP, don't mess around with this junk, buy an adaptor from Apple.

My only (and real) issue with the EP, is the lack of certification. Without it there is zero recourse if it does not work. Maybe it will and maybe it won't, but Apples definitely will.
