  1. Android portrait

    Add screen rotation to Android client. I have a display link monitor than can be turned to portrait mode. But, by default, my device displays in a box unless I turn the device to landscape... It then fills the screen. I would ask that the app allow me to hold the phone in portrait and display to my portrait monitor full screen. It does display correctly for a short time before rotating fully.

    • Support Skype and WebEx in Windows 10. Currently both will only render a snapshot of the screen taken at the time sharing is initiated.

      • Enable 4K HDR support to TV's for extended display use when viewing High End Photographs in Capture One or other Photo Edditing software

        A large number of Photographers are using high end Cameras capable of recording 16 bits per pixel HDR. There are also a large number of 4K HDR TV's being sold but they only display Jpeg format at 8 bits per pixel. It would be fantastic to have a device that would bring these technologies together so people could use their TV's to view and or edit their HDR photographs properly on a 4K HDR device.

        • Issues with OSX using 802.1x using System Keychain

          We just deployed a few hundred of these devices (The Dell D6000)and the OSX devices will not use the system keychain to authenticate to 802.1x, This works properly with the onboard NIC, Apple USB-C Adapter, Belkin USB-C Adapter.

          We use an OSX Profile that states how to connect to 802.1x with ethernet using system credentials. This does not work with the Displaylink Dock. I can however manually input credentials manually and it works, but no user accounts are allowed to authenticate only machine accounts.

          • Ubuntu drivers eating a lot of CPU. Not always but at least 50% of the times

            I have actually a very slow PC because of this:
            PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
            1541 root 20 0 2343424 51804 2624 S 111.9 1.4 198:49.14 DisplayLinkMana
            in other words, DisplayLinkMana(ger) eats a lot of CPU. from 50 to more than 100%

            sometimes not.

            I think this is an issue, that should be fixed.

            Thank you.

            • Add upgrade logic to the Linux installation scripts

              I had version 1.1.62 of the Ubuntu driver installed. When I tried to install the new driver, I got errors saying the EVDI module was running and I needed to reboot to continue the installation. After reboot, I got the same error again.

              After looking into the running DisplayLinkManager process, I ended up dropping into /usr/lib/displaylink and running the install script there with the uninstall option:

              me@mine:/usr/lib/displaylink$ sudo ./displaylink-installer.sh uninstall
              DisplayLink Linux Software 1.1.62 install script called: uninstall
              Distribution discovered: Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS
              Uninstalling
              Removing EVDI from kernel tree, DKMS, and removing sources.
              Stopping DLM systemd service
              Removed symlink /etc/systemd/system/graphical.target.wants/displaylink.service. …
