Hello DisplayLink Support Team and Community,

I am a software developer utilizing a multi-monitor setup powered by DisplayLink (DL-6xxx series). While the overall experience is great, I would like to propose an optimization (or inquire about a workaround) regarding UI responsiveness in IDEs (Visual Studio/JetBrains) when hardware acceleration is active.

Current Setup:

OS: Windows 11 Pro (Build 22631)

DisplayLink Driver: v11.x (Latest)

Hardware: [Insert your Docking Station model]

Monitors: 2x 4K Monitors at 60Hz

The Goal/Ideal: I am looking for a way to prioritize "latency over throughput" specifically for text-heavy applications. In high-DPI environments, there is a slight "input lag" when scrolling through thousands of lines of code or using heavy plugins like Visual Assist/ReSharper.

My Questions / Suggestions:

Direct Flip / MPO Support: Are there plans to improve Multi-Plane Overlay (MPO) compatibility to reduce the composition overhead on the secondary displays?

Selective Refresh: Is there a registry tweak or a setting in the DisplayLink Manager to prioritize the refresh rate of the "active window" area to ensure zero-lag typing?

Legacy Header Handling: Does the current compression algorithm handle static text-based UI differently than video content to save CPU cycles?

I believe improving the "snappiness" for professional workstations would make DisplayLink the undisputed choice for developers.

Looking forward to your insights or any beta driver suggestions.

Best regards,
