Due to the Duo Hub utilizing two USB-C ports on your MacBook, you can extend to two additional displays.
If you have 2 x HDMI monitors, the HDMI monitor is connected from the HDMI port on the hub, and the second HDMI monitor is connected from the first primary USB-C (Thunderbolt 3 pass-through) port, with a USB-C to HDMI cable. (See the image below)
USB-C to HDMI cable.
If you have a DVI monitor as the second monitor, please get a USBC to DVI cable, such as below:
If you have a MiniDP or VGA monitor as the second monitor, please get a USBC to MiniDP or VGA cable, such as below:
As long as one monitor is connected via HDMI-to-HDMI and the other is connected via USB-C to the display monitor, you will achieve two displays through the Duo.

At this point I do not use the hyperdrive at all. The point was to be able to use MiniDP and HDMI, as it was advertised on your website. It did not explain a limitation that the Mini DP only works for monitors which are no longer produced.
May I return this for a full refund?
Thanks

I have a Hyperdrive Pro 8-in-2 and the monitor connect to the HDMI port incessantly blinks. I paid $120 for it and I just don't use it now as well.
Any help? I have had it for a few months but it stoped working just after a month of ownership.
Thanks

Please do the hard reboot on MacBook. Power it off completely first and then turn it on again.
If the issue remain the same, please send email to support@hypershop.com for replacement.
I have the same issue.
Connected a normal working HP-display
via the HyperDrive hub, HDMI to HDMI cable, and the monitor blinks every 3-4 seconds.
This symptom showed up immediatelly after connecting the display and the hub is new.
I've tried with charger cable (original Apple) attached and without,
with other ports as USB attached and without.
Tried different resolutions and refresh rates, but blinking does not stop.
Is there anything else I can test before contacting Amazon for replacement?
Best regards
