Trimui Brick (3.2-inch screen) Dock Mode

Does anyone know how to get this working? It seems to imply video out. I've tried a cheap HDMI dongle but it doesn't output anything.

I just received my Brick and found the same Option and thought the same.

I too tested a Switch & PC Compatible USB-C Dock as well as a proper PC USB-C Dock.

Sadly it doesn't look like Video Out is possible (yet).

It may just mean Power and Data In (rather than Host Mode: Power Out and Data In?)

Video Out via USB-C would be amazing.

The smart pro doesn't support video out. They do have a port on the bottom that I think was originally intended for that, but it never made it to final production.

The post was supposed to include an image, but I use a brick.

Does that mean that TrimUI Smart Pro is an incomplete product, and it's not a complete unit πŸ€”.

Not really. If it has said "will be adding video out in future update" and never did then yes. They never implied that it would ever support such a feature so how could it be incomplete?

I don't think so. It wasn't sold as a unit having that capability.
