Resolution issue after using different displays
 

Hello,

I haven't ever had to post here before as my Anker 563 USB-C Dock has been flawless. However, since disconnecting and using it with different displays, I cannot reconfigure my usual setup and max resolutions are not available.

I have 3 x 2560 x 1440 displays connected to my MacBook Pro M2. One display is connected to the HDMi on the MacBook, then 2 displays connected to the Anker Dock, one with HDMi and the other DisplayPort.

I had no issue getting the full 2560 x 1440 resolution on all 3 displays with my MacBook Pro was in clamshell mode, but then I used the dock with a pair of 1920 x 1080 displays, and my iPad Pro as a 3rd display. Since plugging the usual displays back in, I can't get higher than 1920 x 1080 on the two original displays connected to the Dock.

Can anyone help me with this please? I'm running MacOS 13.2, which has remained unchanged throughout this. My DisplayLink Manager version was v1.8.1. In trying to resolve this I have upgraded to v1.10.1 without success.

Many thanks

As a first step, I would suggest using the End-User Cleaner tool for macOS --> https://support.displaylink.com/know...tool-for-macos and then perform a fresh install of the latest release of the DisplayLink Manager application in order to see if that changes the behavior.

I'M CURRENTLY DEALING WITH THIS EXACT ISSUE after deciding to play musical chairs with my HDMI cords! 🙄🤦🏼*♂️

I'm parsing through Google with a hope and a prayer...
If I find any remedy, I'll be sure to share the love... likewise, would you terribly mind forwarding any fixes you uncover!?

Good luck to us both. 😂

Hello, thanks for responding. Unfortunately this hasn't changed anything, and the maximum resolution I can set on my 2560 x 1440 displays is still 2048 x 1152, despite having the "experimental 2560" mode enabled.

Any other suggestions gratefully received thankyou.

If the original manufacturer of your docking station (Anker) has been unable to provide support, then I would suggest reporting the issue to DisplayLink directly by following the process outlined here --> https://support.displaylink.com/know...to-displaylink

Hello,

Hopefully the fix for me will be as simple for you. When I reconnected my cabling, I used the 2nd HDMi port along with the DisplayPort. The 2nd HDMI is only 2K, whereas the 1st is 4K and I hadn't realised that. Now that I'm using the 1st HDMi along with the DisplayPort, and my 3rd display is being driven from the MacBook Pro M2 as before, all is well and I have 2560 resolution on all 3 external displays.

Good luck!

DisplayLink didn't supply HiDPI
 

I bought ORICO 15-in-1 USB C Docking Station to extend more display.
My display: EIZD monitor (27-inch · IPS · 2560 x 1440)

I using Mac OS (M1 - Sonoma )version 14.5 to connect with Docking to display. However, i didn't see resolution HiDPI.

I want to use HiDPI resolution. Can you help me find solution?


Thanks
