Hi Benoit,

welcome to the forum!


I found a YT video in which it was confirmed in 2018 that the display adapter you mentioned works on the Genos:

The adapter should definitely work also with Genos V2.02. However, I cannot guarantee this.


Here you can download a list of the display adapters tested by Yamaha with the Genos:

I use the "i-tec USB2HDTRIO" display adapter with the Genos:

For a display adapter to work with the Genos, it must be a USB 2.0 device (USB 3 display adapters do not work!). In addition, the adapter must be based on a specific chipset (DisplayLink DL-165 or DL-195), see here:

Hope this helps!

You need this off ebay, i got mine cheap at the time works perfect with genos.

Plugable USB 2.0 UGA to VGA/DVI/HDMI Multi Display Adapter. New no more than £40 off amazon but you could get a better deal off ebay.
