Exclamation F.lux Flux is not working on Displaylink DL-6950

I cannot make F.lux work on WAVLINK Docking Station with chipset Displaylink DL-6950.
As far as I know DL-6950 should be supported for these feature.
I have tried both the HDMI and DisplayPort.

I am on MacOS Monterey 12.4 Macbook Air M1 2020

The model of the docking station is Wavlink ‎RC-UG69PD2 WL-UG39DK16P.
This one: https://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B07J9VWQPY/

I've tried to re-install both DisplayLink Manager and F.lux. Unplug and plug again monitors.
Nothing ever changed.

Is this feature really supported? Are there any workarounds?

Thank you

DisplayLink has more information about this beta feature here --> https://support.displaylink.com/know...support-option

A few important notes:

A. DisplayLink has stated that the feature is in 'beta' status, and this is reflected in the labelling of the feature within the DisplayLink Manager Application status window.

B. The beta support for f.lux must be enabled within the DisplayLink Manager Application status window in order to function.

C. The 3rd-party f.lux application must be installed separately.

D. Docking stations based on the DL-6950 chipset will support the feature via their DisplayPort video outputs connected internally to the DisplayLink chip. The feature is not supported on HDMI video outputs connected internally to the DisplayLink chip (DisplayLink calls this out in the aforementioned knowledge base article).

If the f.lux support is not working as expected in your environment, the best way to help is to report the issue to DisplayLink directly via the guidelines they publish here --> https://support.displaylink.com/know...to-displaylink
