Displaylink ceases to work in 10.13.4

You may have to change your settings, or make sure you do have indeed the proper Mojave version.
That new OS version been confirmed as fixing the problem by multiple sources already.

Yes I do have

10.14 Beta (18A347e)

This is Beta 5

Turns out some idiot changed the docking station on our flex desk to a WD15 which was my problem when using the original dell docking station Dell D1000 I have no issue it works as stated

Well, it turns out that my mid-2011 27" iMac is not supported in Mojave.

Oh, the joys of programmed obsolescence.

Alban, is there any chance there'll be work on a solution for users with High Sierra > 10.13.4 ? Or are we getting left behind?

Damn, here i am trying, checking, going - "im up to date on the beta, why doesnt this work??' -
Oh - its the DEVELOPER beta. Not Public beta.

Public Beta is out!
ok - installed the PB 18A347e - uninstalled, reinstalled, rebooted.
Wait, i unplugged and replugged in the usb device. now the screen is on! i can see a mouse. but its black like it was back on 13.4.
If I screen shot the other monitor, it shows the backround image, and menu bar, but on the display its just black.

Edit - Just Uninstalled - REBOOT - Reinstall beta 5, REboot - TA M-Fin DA!! 2 SCREENS NO AIRPLAY!!

I can confirm that it is now working. Tested on a 2017 and 2012 Macbook Pro.
Thanks Displaylink for your perseverance.

I can confirm too, it is working now. MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2015)
Finally DisplayLink folks did it, many thanks!

Has anyone gotten the ASUS MB169+ to work with a 2018 MacBook Pro w/ Touch Bar (The latest model). I installed the beta 5 and followed all instruction but when I plug the monitors cable into my USB-C hub, the display either blinks orange or will alternate blinking orange and white.

I can also report it working with Mojave Public Beta 4 and DisplayLink Beta 5 drivers on my 2013 13" MacBook Air.

I've seen that flashing behavior when connected to the USB-C ports. I believe it depends on the cable and/or USB-C to USB adapter you are using. apparently some cables/adapters don't supply enough power to keep the monitor powered up.

I'm about to upgrade my MacBook Air to a 2018 MacBook Pro, so I expect I will be fighting that battle soon also.
