usb to hdmi support on openelec or kodibuntu - masg11 - 2015-04-29

I'd like to convert two toshiba laptops I have into Mediacenters but neither has any video output ports. Does anyone know if either openelec or kodibuntu would support a device like this:

usb to hdmi

or if their is another way to go about getting the signal to my tv. My existing openelec lapop does have hdmi out.

I would be suspicious about whether such a device would do all frame rates required for a decent media centre. You could buy one and see, but the price is 1/3 of the way to the price of real media centre like a Chromebox.
