DisplayLink Problem in Windows 11: No External Monitor Found
I recently updated my laptop to Windows 11, and I've been connecting numerous displays with a DisplayLink docking station. On Windows 10, everything was operating smoothly, but now one of my external monitors is completely unrecognized.
What I've attempted so far is as follows:
updated the DisplayLink driver from the official Space Waves 2 website until it was installed again.
installed the most recent cumulative update for Windows 11.
examined all of the wires and USB-C and HDMI connectors.
restarted the laptop and docking station several times.
While other monitors attached to the same dock function properly,…

Add Network detection like Kensington DockWorks
Please add network settings to Display-Link Software, so that Kensington DockWorks functionality is available for all Docking Stations:
- disable WiFi when connecting to a Docking Station with Ethernet Connection
- Passthrough MAC-Adress from the WiFi-Adpter to the Eth-Adapter in the Dock, so that the same IP-Adress can be used and all network cennections don't need to be reconfigured
- Enable WiFi again when Dock is disconnected

Dual Displays on Android App
Dual Displays on Android App
10 votesDisplayLink can already support mulitple USB displays connected on Android with the DisplayLink desktop app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.displaylink.desktop.demo&hl=en_GB
However Android does not have a concept of multiple displays like other OSes. As of Android Pie, a single app can use more than one screen, eg powerpoint uses the phone screen to show presenter notes, and the extended screen shows the presentation.
For DisplayLink to properly support dual displays on Android, like other OSes, changes would be needed to Android to support multiple displays.

Make DisplayLink installer compatible with Ubuntu 21.04 (Hirsute Hippo)
I'm testing the prerelease version of the next Ubuntu release, 21.04 (Hirsute Hippo). There are incompatibilities between 21.04 and the current Ubuntu DisplayLink release, and I wanted to bring them to your attention, in case you weren't already aware, ask whether you are aware of any workarounds, and ask what your timeline is for supporting 21.04.
1) The evdi kernel module that ships with your DisplayLink installer does not compile under 21.04. I had to use the evdi module included with Ubuntu rather than the version that comes with your DisplayLink installer.
2) It appears that…

Question About MacBook Display Behavior
My MacBook works wonderfully overall, but I’ve noticed something odd. When I connect it to my external monitor, the scaling sometimes looks a bit off and certain apps don’t fit the screen perfectly. It’s not a big issue since everything still functions well, but it would be great if this could be improved in a future update. Has anyone else experienced this, and is there a fix on the way? Wishing you all the best!

It is possible to use product relying on the DisplayLink DL-6950 ICs before the OS loads provided the UEFI BIOS includes, or the pre-OS side loads, the DisplayLink UEFI GOP driver. The driver is available to all laptop manufacturers. We encourage you to ask for this functionality from your laptop vendor so they inbox it.

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…

Request: Better Multi-Monitor Stability and GPU Resource Management for DisplayLink on Windows 11
I’ve been using DisplayLink docks for a while to manage multiple external monitors on Windows 11, and overall, the experience has been great — Granny Game smooth setup, reliable performance, and minimal latency. However, I’ve recently noticed some intermittent stability issues when running high GPU-demanding tasks such as video editing or 3D rendering.
Occasionally, one or more external displays flicker or temporarily disconnect, especially when switching between GPU-intensive applications. It seems related to how DisplayLink interacts with Windows graphics scheduling or power management.
Would it be possible for future DisplayLink driver updates to optimize GPU resource…

Please Add an Option to Disable or Customize the DisplayLink On-Screen Display (OSD)
I would like to request a new feature regarding the on-screen display (OSD) messages that appear when connecting or disconnecting DisplayLink devices. These pop-ups can be distracting, especially during presentations, screen recordings, or when switching between workspaces.
Details / Concerns:
Could you please add an option in the DisplayLink Manager to disable the OSD notifications entirely?
Alternatively, the ability to customize the OSD (position, transparency, duration, or size) would be extremely helpful.
Many users find the current OSD intrusive, and having control over it would significantly improve the user experience.
This feature would benefit professionals who require a…

Ipad
Apple iPadOS — Using Driverkit add support for iPadOS for Displaylink. The iPadOS may not be able to handle dual screens but if using Displaylink I could have the external screen split over two screens this would be great also.

Please add: Xenarc Model # 708TSU to your list of not supported devices

But after reading your support page (which, duh, I should have done in the first place) I understand why my device is not working. Has a fricking storage device in it with the drivers.

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.

Potential work around for the Catalina Mac OS update
I'm unsure if someone has already suggested this, but with the latest update Mac has rolled out (for Catalina 10.15), my DisplayLink stopped working with dual screen.
I have updated the driver to the most recent release, and all that would display would be one of the two screens. DisplayLink lists a possible solution involving entering recovery mode and inputting commands, however, I am impatient and lazy and did not do that.
But, I did get my dual display working again. For me, toggling my displays to mirror activated my dual screens, and toggling off mirroring has…

Conflicts using Nvidia Prime, Displaylink and Ubuntu
I would like to describe conflicts using Nvidia Prime, Displaylink and Ubuntu in my experience.
My environment: Ubuntu 18.10, Nvidia GTX 1070 (nvidia-driver-415), Displaylink 5.1, Asus MB168B+ (USB monitor), laptop Gigabyte Aero15x.
If I try to login with nvidia profile activated and anything connected in USB ports (even only a mouse), I will face a login loop. It only will stop after disconnecting all USB devices, restarting the system and then I'll be able to login into my Ubuntu. Once logged in, I can connect my USB devices and use everything included my second monitor.
