DisplayLink Forum - View Single Post - Does DL driver work with macOS latest update

UPDATE 10 Nov 21

DL 1.5.0 on macOS 12.01 occasionally would move or swap between screens my opened windows when is waking up from sleep hence have to wait for all screens to wake up properly before logging in. One of DL monitors keep resetting its set background clolour back to default image from time to time. My MBA 13 M1 has also crashed a couple of times i.e. it completely froze, briefly flased pink-ish colour then rebooted. I've had this once or twice prior upgrading from Bug Sur and previous DL version but now it had happened 3 times last week. Apart from that no other issues.
UPDATE: 04 Nov 21

Updated to macOS Monterey 12.0.1 on MBA M1 and so far all is working fine if not better with DL 1.5 Release: 1.5 | Sep 8, 2021 (still no screen rotation on M1).

UPDATE: 03 Nov 21

My 3 monitors are working as before on 11.6.1. I'm not using screen rotation as I have converted my setup of Dells 1 x 49 " + 3 x 25" to horizontal so please test and let us know although from this thread it appears screen rotation is still not working on M1 machines - https://www.displaylink.org/forum/sh...2844#post92844.

UPDATE 28/07/21

Just updated macOS to 11.5.1 and my 1 x Dell 49" native and 3 DL monitors are still wortking fine (using in horizontal mode). There's been occasional macOS crashes for the past 1.5 months though but am not sure if this is DL or just macOS related (no time to dig deeper atm).

PREVIOUS UPDATES

Just updated my macOS to 11.4 with DL 1.4 installed and all is working well on my 3 x 2K monitors via DL driver apart from missing screen rotation options in Preferences > Displays for my DL monitors hence couldn't test it. However, one user reported no HiDPI above resolution 1920x1080 as below:

Low res 4k is available but other than that no other HiDPI resolutions above 1920x1080.
