Update the Android app to support screen rotation. You can switch to portrait mode on my display connected monitor. However, unless I switch to landscape mode, my tablet will always show content in a box. It finishes by filling the screen. Please make it possible for me to use the app when holding the phone in portrait mode so that it can fill the screen of my portrait monitor Foodle. For a little moment, it shows the right thing before spinning completely around.

Make driver updates happen automatically, regardless of whether a dock is attached or not.
At my helm is a sizable Windows 10 client infrastructure. We prefer to keep drivers informed. I would prefer to have the most recent driver installed on a displaylink (DL) dock when I connect to it. To the best of my knowledge, this is not how things are done nowadays.
Nowadays, when a computer connects to a DL dock, the driver is automatically enabled. If Windows Update checks for updates, it will update your DL driver. assumion that driver updates are enabled and that a more recent driver is accessible.Envision a world where I could skip the Windows update…

Windows 11: My monitor is not working with the most recent Nvidia drivers.
Greetings, I am Emir
First things first, here's my setup: "monster" make "aryond" two monitors, "monster tulpar t7 v21.7" gaming laptop, RTX 3060 Notebook GPU, GQeem T4801 docking station.
Secondly, here's the rub: my OS of choice has been Windows 10. And it was perfectly nice with everything. Then I'll have to upgrade to Windows 11, so here it is.
Initially, Windows 11 worked fine for me, but after installing a certain version of the Nvidia drivers, I am unable to utilize my displays. If I want to keep using the most recent drivers for my displaylink configuration, I'll have…1 vote -
Problems with Netflix and HBO Go on MacBook Pro with the most recent version of DisplayLink (v. 13).
I just updated the Displaylnk driver to the current version (13.7.6) for Mac OS X Ventura, and now neither Netflix nor HBO Max will work properly; the videos won't display, but the audio is fine. I've tested this in both Firefox 141.0 and Chrome 138.0.7204.184. If you want both platforms to function, you'll either have to disable Displaylink Geometry Dash or exit the app. Even after removing and reinstalling Displaylink, the problem persisted. Two high-definition external monitors are connected to my Plugable UD-3900Z.

Code-sign and notarize DisplayLink Manager for macOS so it passes Gatekeeper checks and can be reinstated in Homebrew.
The DisplayLink Manager app for macOS is currently failing Apple's Gatekeeper checks due to missing code signing and notarization. This prevents smooth installation and usage for macOS users, especially those installing via Homebrew, the widely used macOS package manager.
Because of this, the DisplayLink Manager cask was deprecated and removed from Homebrew’s repository:
- GitHub Discussion (Homebrew maintainers' decision): https://github.com/orgs/Homebrew/discussions/6337
- Related PR removing the cask: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/pull/222423
Please update DisplayLink Manager for macOS so it is:
- Code-signed with a valid Apple Developer ID.
- Notarized via Apple's notary service.
Once this is done, Homebrew maintainers have indicated the cask can be reinstated, restoring…

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.

DisplayLink on Steam Deck or Handheld PCs – Anyone Tried It?
Hey everyone,
I’ve been experimenting with portable setups lately and was wondering — has anyone successfully used DisplayLink on a Steam Deck (or similar handheld PCs like the ROG Ally or Ayaneo)? I'm curious if it's stable enough to run multiple external monitors via USB-C when docked.A few questions to get the ball rolling:
1. Did the DisplayLink drivers install properly on SteamOS or did you have to switch to Windows?
2. How’s the performance — any input lag or graphical glitches?On a side note — I tried running Geometry Dash

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…

After updating to macOS Sequoia 15.4.1, DisplayLink Manager stopped functioning.

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!

DisplayLink 'Screen Sharing' on Mac Hides All Notifications by Default
On MacOS, "Allow notifications when mirroring or sharing the display" is turned off by default. Since DisplayLink uses the screen-sharing process for external monitors, this causes all system/app notifications to be hidden by default. A regular user might not know why this is happening or how to fix it.
DisplayLink Manager should either warn the user upon setup or not use the Mac screen-sharing process.

Last version of DP Presenter for Android (4.2.x) is sluggish!!
Version 4.0.x worked fine, even if resolution was limited. The new version is sluggish as hell (I am using a 3840x2160 monitor, but I don't care about hi-res, I want a usable experience).
Please fix or, if anything, add a setting in the app to set a maximum resolution.1 vote
