The firmware updater requires Windows.

Use SwitchResX to export the EDID? Or maybe BetterDisplay.app? The online EDID decoder at https://people.freedesktop.org/~imirkin/edid-decode/ can decode hex bytes of an EDID. I have a fork of the edid-decode utility at https://github.com/joevt/v4l-utils which I use on my Mac to decode EDIDs.

Startech.com has a similar product CDP2DVIDP to the CAC-1510 and they have a download for firmware updating and a download for update instructions.
https://www.startech.com/en-ca/display-video-adapters/cdp2dvidp
The updater executable and eeprom files are identical to those provided by Club-3D support so they should work with the CAC-1510.

Check the EDIDs of the display and compare. One might have HDCP the other might not have HDCP. The one without HDCP is older and my require a different firmware.

I was able to get all advertised functionality on the CSV-7330 by:
-Connecting the desired HDMI 2.1 display *natively* over HDMI2.1 to any system capable of full HDMI2.1 output.
-Using CRU (Custom Resolution Utility by ToastyX) to export the “native HDMI2.1 connection” EDID file.
-Re-connecting the HDMI2.1 display to the desired PC, through the CSV-7330 hub.
-Using CRU on the desired system, Import that ‘native HDMI’ EDID over the EDID CSV-7330 imposes.

The CSV-7330 is modifying the EDID? Can you post the hex of the original EDID and the EDID from the CSV-7330 so we can decode it and see the modifications?

 

Is there a tool from Synaptics in the Microsoft Store that can identify the chip that is used in the CSV-7330? Maybe VmmDPTool64?

[quote author="remonde"]Hello everyone, I’m Ali from Germany and I’m trying to run my simrig with 3x DP to HDMI adapter CAC1088 with 3x LG OLED G3, which isn’t working at the moment. I’ve already contacted support to ask if there are any firmware updates or another solution. A friend of mine is doing the same thing. He uses 3x CAC 1085 adapters and everything works without issues with NVIDIA Surround 4k120hz. I wanted to buy the CAC 1085 but I can’t get it anywhere in Germany.[/quote]

Please ask your question in a new post. Include information about the OS and GPU that you are using. Please report results of using only one CAC-1088 and also only two CAC-1088. How does using three CAC-1088 not work? Can you download one of the Synaptics tools from the Windows Store to determine what chip and firmware the CAC-1088 uses? How does it differ from the CAC-1085?

The CSV-1583 should be able to supply up to 96W to the host.

Which model Asus laptop do you have? Are you sure it has a Thunderbolt port that accepts power delivery?

Do the Thunderbolt functions of the CSV-1583 work? I believe it supports two displays connected to GPU (using Thunderbolt DisplayPort tunnelling to the downstream Thunderbolt port and the 8K DisplayPort port) and two displays connected to USB (using DisplayLink drivers that output to the two pairs of HDMI/DisplayPort ports).

Is the 2.5 GbE supplied by PCIe or USB? I suppose it must be USB if it works for non-Thunderbolt or non-USB4 hosts (i.e. for USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode hosts).

You can use SwitchResX to get the EDID of the display and the product ID.

1440p120 is less bandwidth than 4K60 (594 MHz) so it should work.

The DisplayPort EDID of the S2716DG (from https://edid.tv/edid/944/ ) has several refresh rates for 1440p (24, 60, 85, 100, 120, 144 Hz; 570 MHz max pixel clock). All of them are within the HDMI 2.0 limit (600 MHz).

I don’t know if the PS5 will allow any of the modes though.

The CAC-1333 is supposed to produce a DisplayPort signal.

Have you tried a bidirectional DisplayPort to USB-C cable? It should be the same thing as the CAC-1333 – i.e. a DisplayPort signal with no USB data but without the HDMI conversion. If DisplayPort only works, then check the EDID for compatible display modes. You’ll need one that has a pixel clock < 600 MHz in order to fit in HDMI 2.0 bandwidth. Then, using the CAC-1333, see if that compatible display mode exists and has the same timing info (pixel clock, sync width, etc.). You can use SwitchResX to view timing info of the current display mode or any other display mode.

If you have an Intel Mac, then you can use my AllRez tool to get more info about the supported display modes.

The EDID of the XDR should have these modes:

The 1440p and 4K modes are within HDMI 2.0 limits.

HDMI 4K mode is 594 MHz and doesn’t match the XDR 4K modes. That means it would be a custom timing. I don’t know what custom timings work with the XDR.

[joevt]

CRU is a utility that can get the EDID and override it https://www.monitortests.com/forum/Thread-Custom-Resolution-Utility-CRU

You can take the hex from the exported EDID and decode it using edid-decode of linux or macOS (or maybe there’s a Windows version somewhere).

[joevt]

Check the EDID to see if it advertises a 4K120 mode.

[joevt]

Which GPU?

Which PC?

Which TV?

Which port of the PC is the adapter connected to?

Does the TV have a PC mode?

[joevt]

In theory, it should work. In practice maybe not.

What laptop do you have?

CAC-1333 supports only DisplayPort 1.2 so it would be limited to 4K60.
https://insights.club-3d.com/thread/cac-1333-with-apple-studio-display-and-macbook-pro-early-2013/

Something like the CAC-1332 would be better because it includes USB 2.0 for the USB features of the display.

For higher resolutions (5K or 6K), the CAC-1336 supports HDMI 2.1 and DSC and also includes USB 2.0 but it might have issues. I have not tried it with an Apple 5K or 6K Thunderbolt display.
https://insights.club-3d.com/thread/cac-1336-operation/

The StarTech 148B-HDMI-DP-8K might have a slightly newer HDMI 2.1 to DisplayPort 1.4 chip (LT6711GX-U3 vs LT6711GX-U2 in the CAC-1336).

 

[joevt]

Use SwitchResX to get the EDID from the display. It should have a timing for 2560×1600 60Hz.

In the SwitchResX current resolutions list, double click the 2560×1600 mode and verify that the timing parameters (pixel clock, horizontal and vertical sync front/back porch, pulse width) match those in the EDID.

Test the display with a different computer?

Test the adapter with a different computer?
