Helpful answer

Yes, you can use the HP Spectre x360 14 laptop to transmit a video signal to a TV via the Thunderbolt 4 port, provided that you use a compatible USB-C to HDMI cable. Here are some important points:

Requirements:
1. Thunderbolt 4 supports DisplayPort Alt Mode:
The Thunderbolt 4 port on your HP Spectre x360 supports image transfer via the so-called DisplayPort Alt Mode, which is necessary for output to HDMI or other displays.
2. use the right cable:
You will need an active USB-C to HDMI cable or an adapter that converts DisplayPort signals from USB-C to HDMI. There are also direct USB-C to HDMI cables that make this possible. Make sure that the cable/adapter supports 4K@60Hz if you want to transfer high resolutions.
3. note the HDMI version of the TV:
If your TV only supports HDMI 1.4, the maximum resolution and refresh rate may be limited to 1080p. Newer TVs with HDMI 2.0 or higher also support 4K resolutions.
