HelveticUp-Over

thanks to giganode, Simon et al. for this great work. I have the VM's working using this plugin. Though.............(always a catch) 1) I have a Supermicro X13-SAE-f with a i5-14500T, the objective was to get away from my previous dual E5 Xeon with 2080Ti graphics card, monster with water cooling, excessive noise, hence why I choose something with iGPU. Plex and all that jazz is working, though I really miss my VM that I used to output directly from the graphics card to my 42" TV 2) I feel somewhat deceived now that iGPU even with using this plugin, the output from the motherboard HDMI can't be used to display the VM. Unless a workaround using a DisplayLink USB-> HDMI converter (with what seems dubious results).......... 2x questions: 1) Why can't the VM output be passed through to the physical HDMI port on the motherboard? Will it be something possible to do with more jiggery-pockery with all this plug-in etc? 2) What is the best option moving forward, the less optimal solution of a USB->HDMI converter, or is it better just to install a cheap, low energy consumption GPU card, pass this through and display the VM via the HDMI cable connected to the GPU HDMI output ? I don't need high end gaming, just something to surf the net from my couch, watch some Youtube videos etc etc..............I've spent way too much time with this iGPU passthrough and trying to get monitor/TV output directly from the HDMI MB port. thanks again guys, reading this thread has given me some peace, at least being able to invoke the "sunk-cost fallacy", and realise if the pros haven't been able to do it, then I myself with my 1993 Fortran programming studies, I was pushing the proverbially uphill.
