Deck to LG TV
Deck to LG TV
I feel a bit sheepish having to ask this, but has anyone successfully gotten their deck to display on a LG TV (C2 to be precise)? I have the official dock and that works for other devices like my laptop or surface pro but no dice with the deck itself.
I've tried various things like resetting the device, resetting the dock, changing the order of connection them all up but not managed to get anything to show it. I also checked that the HDMI cable I'm using works for up to 8k. A bit frustrating as one of the reasons I got the device was to be the living room PC/link to my gaming PC!

Everytime I run my steamdeck on my tv i have to do this precisely in this order 0. Turn off steamdeck 1.unplug steamdeck and disconnect video cable (hdmi) 2.turn on tv and choose hdmi 1 for input 3. Turn on steamdeck 4. Once turned on plug in hdmi cable 5. Video should turn off on steamdeck and turn on on tv 6. Now plug in power to steamdeck
I found this solution online in a forum after much searching. Its like witchcraft but must be done exactly in this order. Gerd lerk, lemme know if it works.
For me .... I just plug the dock USB C top cord out/off and on/in again 🥹.
After the deck is booted and at steam screen or desktop mode.
Then for future boots, it's usually okay. If not... Repeat step 1.
I blame CEC/HDMI control shenanigans.
When do you plug the deck back to the dock? I tried this a few times with no luck :(
The dock has 2 cords. The power cord and the hdmi that plugs into the top of steam deck. In my instructions im calling the plug that goes into the top the hdmi. The power cord for the dock i just unplug at the wall
