• Source Device: Confirm your source device (laptop, phone, console) is powered on and configured to output video.
• USB-C Compatibility: If using USB-C, ensure your device's USB-C port supports video output (DisplayPort Alternate Mode). Not all USB-C ports are full-featured.
• Input Source: Manually select the correct input source (USB-C or HDMI) via the OSD menu.

7.2 Flickering Screen / Unstable Display
