Yea that's not really an issue as opposed to just the way it is with USB External monitor output.

Though it shouldn't be too Choppy, but then again if it's graphics intensive maybe it would be.

I just use mine as a means for Web browsing, and writing Code,

like so:

Default any fix for this?

Hi Pawel, do you have any update on this?

We're running into this issue as well and we were planning on rolling out this solution to all our Mac users (~50 users and growing fast). Unless we can find a fix we'll have to look into getting another product.

Let me know if you need further debug info.

FYI, I used switchresX to try to force the resolution to 1920x1080 but had no luck with that, I can give you modelines, EDID or anything you need to help figure this out.

In our case, the dongle is called USB 2.0 UGA AUDIO, MODEL WS-UG17M1

This is due to lack of graphics acceleration support for the current OS X Driver. As an example, you can use your USB Display in Windows (bootcamp) on the same notebook and it will run the display much smoother because the windows drivers enable graphics acceleration. It is a feature many of us are pushing for in the OS X Driver. See http://www.displaylink.org/forum/showthread.php?t=362

Default working with other model

We tried another model, the WS-UGA19D1 and this one works fine and allow resolutions all the way up to 2048x1152.

Since the other dongle WS-UG17M1 does allow res up to 1920x1080 in windows, I still think that the issue can and should be resolved in software, but in the meantime, we have a way to get this working with the other product.

Now just have to wait for the OpenGL hardware acceleration.

Another unhappy mac user here. Tested the adapter on my 1600*1200 monitor and macbook pro without issues so I supposed everything was ok and ordered a few Samsung 1920*1080 screens.

And now I can't get them running in 1920 * 1080. Funny thing is that the on packaging it claims that the device should be able to do it and I find no reference on the box of the fact that Windows and Mac OS X resolution support is not identical.


this is for a WS-UGA17M1.

Unhappy same problem here :(

hey boys'n'girls,

i've ordered an adapter from ebay and now it's working with 1680x1050 on my FullHD-Screen.

I think it's also the WS-UG17M1 but check with the link above.
now i want to order the WS-UGA19D1 because nmeessen said,
that this will work. can somebody check, wether THIS is the working WS-UGA19D1 adaptor?!
because the page doesn't something about.

but i find out, that the WS-UGA19D1 is die 2048-Adapter, so i hope that this will work.

it would be fine, if somebody can ack this, that THIS is this one what will work.

or is there some new news, that the WS-UG17M1 will work, too?!

thanks in advance and sry for bad bad englisch :/
