Nice to see you got a workable setup even with the fussy things.

I am interested where the 16bit requirement comes from? I got the same
issues and 16bit is just nog doable for my work requirements.

Also does somebody know why AutoAddDevices needs to be set, I also
tested this, but I use bluetooth keyboard and mouses and with this
setting I don’t have any input devices, so not really workable in my set-up.

The use of the DisplaySize maybe not related to displaylink, I have seen
this issues before on many other devices.

With kind regards,

Jelle
