Support more than 4 external displays in MacOS Big Sur
I recently upgraded to MacOS Big Sur and was forced to transition from the legacy driver to Display Link Manager 1.1. My five display setup no longer works . Please consider supporting more than 4 external monitors

I have used a DisplayLink based (Plugable 165) 6 monitor setup with Win10 for years (one DVI/VGA and 5 USB) and have just recently bought a MacPro 5,1 for access to OSX for development work. Losing one of my USB monitors to enjoy the pleasures of Catalina isn't a killer but seems a pointless trade-off. System specs are mid-2010 MacPro-5,1 (2) E5620 Westmere@2.4GHz with 40GB RAM running dosdude1-installed Catalina driving a Sapphire HD7950 Metal video card. I definitely vote for increasing the monitor count under OS X to the same as Windows.

Same for me. I have a Asus mobile screen, but it suddenly stopped working. And I installed every findable driver.

I'm having the same issue except this is a new install for me (post Big Sur upgrade) and my monitors are not being detected no matter what I try. Please ADDRESS this ASAP. Thanks!

Is there going to be an update for the display driver for Mac OS Big Sur 11.0.1 coming anytime soon. My 2 external monitors no longer work. Is there another drive I could try to download?

My new MacBook Pro doesn't recognize the SideTrak. I don't know why. I don't even get the 'arrangement" tab. I'm bummed. Think I have to return this.
