- Displaylink manager 1.7.1 (EDIT: Updated to 1.8.0. but no change to problem)
My problem and workarounds:
- When I log-out and re-login to my Mac (which I do several times a day), there's a 50-50 chance that my two extended HDMI displays will go blank
- I can fix this problem by quitting and restarting the displaylink manager app several times (and sometimes I need to unplug and re-plug the cable to my macbook); this process often takes 2-3 minutes
- As a result I spend 2-3 minutes several times a day fiddling with my displays, which is a frustrating experience.
What I am looking for:
- Is there a better solution to my problems?
- If not, is there any keyboard shortcut I can use to quit and restart the displaylink manager app, so that I don't have to use the menubar process several times a day?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions! ��

I have almost the same problem, but I'm using a Caldigit TS3+ and a DisplayLink compatible USB to HDMI dongle. The problem is definitely the DisplayLink Manager. I don't have to cycle it multiple times, once works, but about half the time it needs to be restarted upon login or it doesn't detect my monitor.
