Answer
I assume you are referring to the 30-PIN Digital AV Adapter vs Lightning Digital AV adapter. The first one uses the old 30-PIN connector while the latter uses the new lightning connector. Check whether your device uses lightning or 30-PIN connector.

Best Answer:Yes it does. However I've noticed that you may have to unplug and then plug in the cable in the headphone jack at first. I'm watching a rented Apple movie on my monitor (HDMI) and using my PC speakers (via the headphone jack) right now.

DOES THIS CABLE SUPPORT THE DIRECT TV APP WITH IPHONE 6 PLUS
i have tyried to connect my iphone 6 plus with the cable to my tv and all i get is sound the rest of my apps work fine

Best Answer:I perchaced this a few days ago and I'm having the same issue but only with live tv. Movies and on demand items work as expected. This may be a bug with the app itself because I've tried other tvs and monitors but got the same results. I also don't have the latest iOS firmware so that may be a factor but I doubt it. I'm going to try to report this to the app developer in the hopes that I gets fixed because it can't be intentional that you only get audio for live feeds.

Answer
Never found a solution to this problem. Based on what I have trad further, the streaming capability is blocked by the DirecTV app to avoid people using it as a way to bypass paying for separate DirecTV boxes.

AnswerThat should work fine. Alternatively if you have a wired sound system you can use an audio cable with 3.5 mm jack to connect it to your iPad.

Best 4:3 monitor for (cropped) full screen native resolution in iPad Pro?
I have this adapter and an iPad Pro. When using it to connect my 1080p monitor it shows "1080p" resolution but there are black bars left and right. So the optimal monitor would have to be 4:3 (as the iPad) but since the black bars are embedded into the image it would also have to crop them. Any suggestion for a monitor that can do this?
