display link on android xiaomi

[mikemoore13]

I post on linux categorie as there is no android sub forum

I bought a sentio superbook which is a displaylink dock.
I noticed that it is very laggy with my Android pocophone F1.
When I display WhatsApp messages it is very smooth on my phone but very laggy on the screen for example.
I noticed something unexpected, indeed using the second screen app on Android with a high resolution (4k) it is much more smooth than when using a low resolution (480p).

My phone is a Xiaomi running on miui 10.2 and I tried to disable miui optimization from Android setting (developer settings) and to disable Android battery optimizations.

It will help many of the xiaomi users with the displaylink docks.

Looking forward to read you.

Hi

We have managed to reproduce this with a Pocophone F1, but it seems specific to this platform.

We have a bug for this and will try and investigate what is causing this.

Thanks

Is it possible to screen mirror my pocophone f1 using DisplayLink cable?I saw a video on YouTube but i am not sure if it actually works...Can anyone tell if it possible? Also i want to know if it's possible then if the audio can play through TV because I want to watch movies...(+ if the quality is good enough to watch movies)And last thing if anyone can suggest me a tested product....

Yes it is possible, pocophone can output screen mirroring over usbc using the displaylink app.
You will need to buy a displaylink to hdmi converter like this one to convert usbc to hdmi : https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B013G4CJM8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Ov8UCb04VKKA6

Unfortunately there is a bug on the display link application for android on the pocophone and maybe with all the xiaomi phones, so it does not look smooth.

We are waiting some news from the display link technical team about it.

Hope it will be good news for the very huge community of the pocophone users ;)
