Integrated Bandwidth Monitoring Dashboard
Add a simple monitoring tool within DisplayLink Manager to show real-time USB or network bandwidth usage. This would help users identify performance bottlenecks when connecting multiple high-resolution displays or peripherals. The visual smoothness in slope rider is further enhanced by motion blur effects and soft lighting transitions that give a sense of seamless velocity.

macOS Sequoia update hangs midway
I’ve been trying to update my Mac to macOS Sequoia, but the installation keeps failing or getting stuck midway. I’ve checked my internet connection, storage space, and even restarted several times — still no luck.
Is anyone else running into the same issue? Could it be a server-side problem from Apple or something with system compatibility?
Would appreciate any tips or fixes that worked for you — I just want to get this update running smoothly!

Multi-Monitor Profile Switching
Hi DisplayLink Team,
Please consider adding a feature to save multiple monitor layouts and quickly switch between them. This would help users who often connect to different setups.

Enhance Installer Compatibility with Automated MDM Deployments
In enterprise environments utilizing MDM solutions like Jamf Pro for macOS device management, software installations often occur during automated workflows such as PreStage enrollment. These installations run in a root context without an active user session. 
Currently, the DisplayLink Manager installer includes a post-installation script that attempts to launch the application using:
currentuser=$(/usr/bin/stat -f %Su /dev/console)
launchctl asuser $(/usr/bin/id -u "$currentuser") /usr/bin/open "/Applications/DisplayLink Manager.app"This approach fails when no user is logged in, leading to installation errors in automated deployment scenarios.
Proposed Enhancement:
Modify the post-installation script to check for an active user session before attempting to…

Allow sharing of multiple screens for NDI Scan Converter
I think this is a DisplayLink limitation, but just installed a Startech 102B multilink for 2 x HDMI extended displays on an M2 Macbook Pro. Displays work great, but unable to send both to NDI Tools Scan Converter. Can only do one or the other. Need to present both a powerpoint slide (extended display 1) and notes (extended display 2). thank you for your consideration!

make your drivers work with MacOs, or dont sell them!
Why is it after purchsing two of your devices I still can't get my MBP to recognise there's a thunderbolt device attached (says only USB 3.1) and rather than show an extended screen, it blinks on and off (both screens) and chimes a particularly noxious chime? I didn't pay too much money for this device, which has never heard of PnP and cannot find a KEXT at all.

Fix Autostart DisplayLink Manager
I tried to apply the setting for autostart for macOS, it didn't work: https://support.displaylink.com/knowledgebase/articles/1964953-enabling-disabling-displaylink-manager-autostart-v
I had to apply a configuration profile in Jamf with a Login Items and Managed Login Items payloads to get this to work. In the Login Items i added: /Applications/DisplayLink Manager.app/ and in Managed Login Items i added the Team Identifier: 73YQY62QM3
Please fix the issue or updated your documentation for how to officially enable and disable autostart.

Ipad
Apple iPadOS — Using Driverkit add support for iPadOS for Displaylink. The iPadOS may not be able to handle dual screens but if using Displaylink I could have the external screen split over two screens this would be great also.

Support for 2304x1296 resolution (macOS)
I’m using an OWC Dual 4K HDMI adapter on macOS Sonoma and while it works rather well driving my 4K displays, what I’m missing on the displaylink-connected display is support for 2304x1296 resolution (scaled) - it’s otherwise available when the display is connected directly.
It’s a very nice middle ground between the size of UI elements and sharpness, and the adapter only provides scaled resolutions of 2560x1440 (a bit smallish and fuzzy) and 2048x1152 (sharper, but too big still). Thank you in advance for accommodating this request, which I hope is not too complex to implement, at least among experimental…
