So I got a MacMini thats running purely on windows. At home, I hook it up to the monitor and everything is fine. It goes through the Gray mac screen, then boots to windows. In the car with Lilliput, it goes through the gray screen then Lilliput shows "no signal". WTF?
Check the monitor resolution settings. First, try 800 X 600 with 60hz. If that doesn't work, keep trying different frequencies. Check the manual for the Lilliput to ensure your monitor settings are consistent with those that the Lilliput is compatible with.

i cant go into lilliput's menu.. i click on Menu, nothing shows up. ill check the manual today see if i can find something.
So... there is no way to change resolution on the screen. Its always set to 800x600.
I ran some tests and here are my results.
I set resolution on macmini to 800x600, still doesnt work. I took external power and ran to macmini, still doesnt work. I then took my laptop and plugged into the lilliput, it works just fine. So result shows that my macmini just simply does not wanna work with that f..n monitor. Any thoughts? I'm thinking about restoring it back to Mac OS and see if that does any difference, dont see why it would though. Ive ran a previous version of macmini with intel and ran windows with it, in the same car, with the same setup, just fine.
What frequency is the refresh rate on the WINDOWS display setting? You probably have the refresh rate on the Windows display set to a frequency outside of the range of the Lilliput. Also, what model Lilliput do you have? The 7"? The 8"?
You may need to hook up the Mini to a regular monitor in order to see the display control panel and set the frequency properly. Both the resolution and the frequency must be correct.
The Mini works fine with the Lilliput. You have set something improperly.

Does the Lilliput not report "FREQUENCY OUT OF RANGE" or "OVERSCAN" when the frequency is too high?
no.. i set the frequency on mac to 56. thats the lowest it goes to. resolution 800x600,
Its the 7" model lilliput if that makes difference.
also, dont know if that makes any difference (as my old macmini worked just fine with the same setup) im using GWC VS1120 Video 2-Port Splitter
