    iMac as a Monitor


    Can anyone please tell me if they have used an iMac as a screen for the Scorpio? I have read this thread Use your iMac as a display with Target Display Mode and it would appear to be possible, however, I would like to know if anyone has and if so was there any lag?

    :)

    No, that would not work as you cannot use the iMac itself as an external monitor. The iMacs only have external video output and no video input to use as a separate monitor.

    Hi!

    Are you using the iMac monitor for the X360 or the OneCast app?

    connecting to imac

    Hi there,

    I'm not familiar with iMac (desktops) etc, but if it's a monitor that has an HDMI in connection then it might work (if the supported resolutions match between monitor and console)

    From a quick search on google, without knowing the exact model number my first assumption is that iMac desktop do Not have any video input connections like HDMI, which makes it impossible to work as monitor for a console.

    connecting xbox to new iMac

    Hi BrianHT, my name is Adam.

    To connect your Xbox Series S to your iMac, you can use an Elgato HD60 S+ device to connect the game console to your Mac computer and play games on the Mac screen.

    Alternatively, you can use a mini-display-to-HDMI adapter to connect your Xbox Series S to your iMac. You can pick up these adapters from Amazon for a reasonable price. Here are the steps to connect your Xbox to your iMac using an HDMI cable:

    1. Connect the mini-display-to-HDMI adapter to the back of your iMac.
    2. Connect the HDMI cable from your Xbox to the adapter’s HDMI slot.

    Once you have connected your Xbox to your iMac, you can use your iMac as an external monitor for your Xbox.

    I hope this helps.
    Adam.
