  1. DisplayLink Support for iPad under Sideloading with iPad0S 18

    Under iPad OS 18 apple promised according to the new EU law to open up iPad OS 18 for sideloading.
    Therefore it would be possible to provide alternative software circumventing the rough restrictions of the app store.
    To sum up: It should be possible to download a display link driver over a 3rd party app store on iPad.
    iPads than would support dual display via display link which would be a feature i absolutely love - and need-

  3. MacOS Sequoia 15.3.1 is managing the display directly, rather than using DisplayLink Manager.

    Macbook Pro system is controlling display not Display Link Manager and can only extend to one display

  4. 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.

  5. Netflix, HBO Max not working with latest Displaylink v 13 on Macos Ventura

    Just upgraded the Displaylnk driver v 13.0 Build 33 for Macos Ventura v 13.7.6 and neither Netflix nor HBO Max are working correctly, Videos just won't show up, sound works though, I've tried on the latest Chrome Version 138.0.7204.184 and Firefox 141.0. Disabling Displaylink or quitting the app is the only way to have both platforms to work. I've also tried unistalling Displaylink an reinstalling but no luck. I'm using the Plugable UD-3900Z with 2 HD external monitors.

  7. HDMI Not Working After macOS 15.5 (24F74) Update – Samsung Odyssey G9 + DisplayLink

    HDMI Not Working After macOS 15.5 (24F74) Update + DisplayLink

    Just wanted to share and escalate an issue we're seeing post-update to macOS 15.5 (Build 24F74). On an M3 Max MacBook Pro (2023), HDMI output via DisplayLink completely stopped working after the OS update.

    Setup:
    macOS 15.5 (Sequoia)
    MacBook Pro M3 Max (2023, 36GB RAM)
    Samsung 57" Odyssey Neo G9
    DisplayPort (left side) + HDMI (right side, DisplayLink)
    DisplayLink Manager (latest version as of posting)

    Behavior:
    DisplayPort still functions
    HDMI input via DisplayLink shows no signal
    Reinstalling DisplayLink Manager, verifying permissions (Screen Recording, Accessibility, etc.), restarting, and switching cables/ports all…

  8. 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 $(/usr/bin/id -u "$current    user") /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…

  12. 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.

  13. Support for 4k displaymode 1920x1280

    Please add display resolution support for BenQ 4k developer displays:
    https://www.benq.com/en-us/monitor/programming.html
    https://www.benq.com/en-us/monitor/programming/rd280u.html

    The RD280U has a native display resolution of 3840x2560, which is
    a 4K resolution of 1920x1280.

    The DisplayLink driver 1.11 (macOS) currently only supports
    1920x1080 and 1920x1440.

    1920x1280 is missing.

  14. 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!

  16. 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.

  19. 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.
