Screen keeps freezing
 

I have a Targus USB-C Universal Dual Video 4k docking station running version 1.1 of displaylink and all screens, including my laptop Macbook air randomly freeze.
easy to reset by unplugging the dock but very annoying.

Same Issue - Displays Freezing
 

Mac Mini M1 (Sonoma 14.3)
Plugable Adapter w/DisplayLink (connected to Mac mini via USB-C)
DisplayLink Manager 1.6.1 (Build 59.135)
3x Benq 27" 2K Displays (2 connected through adapter)
Center Display directly connected to Mac Mini
Left/Right Displays connect via HDMI through adapter
Sonoma 14.3

Displays running through adapter started freezing right after MacOS update to 10.3.

When screen freezes, quitting DisplayLink Manager causes Mac "spinning beachball". Can't force quit from Apple Menu. Must open Activity Monitor to force quit. Relaunch of Displaylink Manager restarts displays but freeze again after a few minutes of use.

Waiting for Support to respond...

I got the same problem...

I have a similar problem.
 

Pluggable Dock.
2 External Monitors
M1 Macbook Pro @ 14.4

I have started to get screen freezing when operating in clamshell mode but ONLY when screensharing an entire monitor over Zoom.

After a long sleep when I wake up my MacBook Air M1 2020 it gets unusably slow, jerky mouse and DL icon top right corner gets a spinning wheel when hover the mouse cursor over it - unable to get into the DL's options anymore.

Absolutely no changes to configuration or software on my Mac and only upgraded the DL. It's happened already more than once and last time after 10-15 minutes the crashed DL managed to restart itself somehow and everything started to work fine after that so it's 100% DL's fault - some memory leak etc.

EDIT 22/03/204 - I wasn't able to wake my MBA at all yesterday morning and had to hard reboot it by holding the power button on.

MacBook Air M1 2020
macOS 14.3.1 (23D60)
DL drivers 1.10.1 (build 93)

This is my exact same issue. I've downloaded 1.9 and will see how that works

Recently started experiencing this and it's terribly annoying!

M2 + Sonoma 14.0
Targus USB-C DV4K Docking Station (DOCK190USZ)
DisplayLink 1.10.0
Zoom 5.17.11 (latest)

I am experiencing frequent freezes when sharing a Window on Zoom.

Just updated DisplayLink to 1.10.1 and scheduled the update to Sonoma 14.4.1 for tonight. Fingers crossed.

this combination of updates did NOT resolve the issue.

ive got the same issue

I'm having the same issue, screen freezes constantly when sharing on Zoom (and I think also Google Meet and Teams). Incredibly frustrating, I don't remember this happening with 1.10.0 or the Alpha releases prior to that.

This happens literally every single time, but it's impossible to predict when (might happen 4 mins into a meeting where I'm sharing, might happen 20 mins in).

I will follow the instructions to capture logs and enter a ticket, but I would say that this is a high priority issue since it basically makes DisplayLink unusable (and seems to be happening for a lot of users)

same issue while using google meet
 

Display link version 1.10.11 (build93)

Connected through DP

What happens?
I am on Google meet and randomly one screen is frozen, and my video in google meet is frozen. This happens over and over, the intervals are not stable so it can be every 15 seconds for 5 times, and then everything is fine for an hour

The dongle is hot, so maybe that's the problem, but that happens when the dongle is not hot too

Please advise what to do🙌

same issue
 

Having the same issue since moving to MacOS Sonoma on an M1. It is quite random and it may happen from once every 10ish minutes to multiple times a minute.
Couldn't see any CPU peaks during this time.

Issue sill Present.

Following Along
 

I've experienced the same issue with sharing via Zoom and my display link freezing
- Displaylink: 1.10.0
- Macbook Air M2 2022: Sonoma 14.4.1

It's incredibly infuriating when I'm on a zoom call and I have to unplug my laptop to get my screens back

Try some of the solutions mentioned here: https://www.salvagedata.com/mac-keeps-freezing/.
Maybe resetting NVRAM will help.
