dl3100 Adapter as main graphics adapter

unrealSpeedy · 09-02-2015, 10:25 AM

hello community,

i have bought a usb3.0 graphics adapter with the dl3100 chipset.
Due to a lack of drivers i have no hardware acceleration on my mac mini integrated graphics.

So i want to use the usb adapter as primary graphics adapter (and as the one and only Monitor). So the decoding of hd videos should be done by the dl3100 instead of the integrated graphics adapter.

Is this possible? And how?

By now I have installed the 2.4 os x driver and the display is connected to the adapter. But videos and graphics are still calculated/decoded by the integrated graphics chip, not the usb adapter. So its still a jerky thing

Im running Yosemite 10.10.5

thank you very much!
