Update documentation for disabling PageFlip on Ubuntu
The documentation at https://support.displaylink.com/knowledgebase/articles/1181623-displaylink-ubuntu-driver-after-recent-x-upgrades suggests creating a configuration file in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d, however configuration in this directory may be ignored in favor of user-specific config at /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d. See https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=198719 for an explanation.

Support of proprietary NVIDIA driver
On my Ubuntu 20.04, Thinkbook 16p 2Gen, ThinkPad Hybrid USB-C+USB-A Dock combination, DisplayLink driver 5.5.Beta works at least for a hdmi 2560x1440 display together with the proprietary NVIDIA driver version 510.47.03.
Setting the displays via the kde control panel was not so easy and robust ... with "nvidia-settings" impossible.It's okay for me now. So, many thanks for the driver. :-)
Displaylink driver 5.4.1 did not work at all.
Is it a coincidence or luck that 5.5.Beta works with the proprietary NVIDIA driver?
Is an update to DisplayLink Release: 5.5, Mar 9, 2022 a risk?

Have the ability to mix 3.5mm headphone jack with 3x 3.5mm surround audio jack via software
My Toshiba Dynabook uses a DisplayLink-chipset for things like 1x 3.5mm headphone audio output (front) and 3x 3.5mm surround sound audio output (rear; 5.1). When setting Windows to 5.1 audio, the headphone-output only plays the stereo front audio. There should be an option inside the driver-software-interface to switch between different modes: a) headphones/surround are different audio devices, b) headphone should play all 5.1 sounds (the 3x rear audio jacks), c) the current way (just in case somebody wants it that way). Why? I see the headphone output as a way to seamlessly switch between loudspeakers and well quieter headphones. That's…

Update DisplayLink Driver for macOS to launch automatically and hidden
Hello,
We are finding that the autostart script is not bulletproof. Having this scripted along with our installation in JAMF is successful however if the automatic startup checkbox is accidentally unchecked by the user it will no longer be enabled for automatic startup. The humanscale dock is unusable unless the DisplayLink Manager is launched.
Thank you,

Enable Combine Displays functionality in the driver
I have a Samsung Neo G9, which for some reason only came with 1 DP and 2 HDMIs. For gaming I use the DP, but for work I use the HDMIs. To get the full resolution (5120x1440) I run 2x HDMIs @ 2560x1440 via a DL-6950 dual HDMI solution from Plugable.
The problem is it's one screen. So without this feature, dragging windows hits an invisible "wall" in the center of the screen, my start menu is offset or duplicated, and I can't maximize windows across the entire screen.
With the Intel graphics center and the Intel GPU, I can…

macOS Multi User Support
When logged in as one user and I switch to another user in macOS, the DisplayLink driver loses all connectivity to my external monitors.
My use case is family members each having their own user on the laptop.
The current workaround is to open the lid, exit clamshell mode and manually start DisplayLink Manager, even though it is already in the top menu bar.
This happens everytime when switching between logged in users.

Fix DisplayLink driver so it works 100% with MacOS
When I have only 1 external monitor connected to my M1 MacBook Pro and I'm not using DisplayLink, the "Remember Window Position" feature of the OS works as expected.
With 2 external monitors (and the unfortunate necessity of DisplayLink), the Remember Window Position feature no longer works.
Please fix the DisplayLink driver so it is effectively invisible to the OS and external monitors behave the same as they do without DisplayLink.14 votes -
ICC support on BigSur and Intel macs
As of now there's a littl quirk in the way DL manages screens and icc profiles. On my M1 11.6 macOS my screens are detected in ColorSync. Thus I can use ICC profiles for calibration. On my work intel 11.6 macOS the screens are not detected. This is weird considering that DisplayLink caters to the "pro" community. As of now I have o idead what profile my INTEL is using thus making my color critical work laptop slightly useless.
But, why is the M1 seeing them? I would expect that this would be a problem on M1s not INTEL.

remove the need to have screen recording turned on
remove the need to have screen recording turned on this is just poor programming on your part as other companies don't do this and it very bad for security
