SOFTWARE

To use the Multi-View & Sound adapter you need to install either the included DisplayLink drivers or download the latest ones from the DisplayLink website (recommended). DisplayLink technology automatically detects compresses and streams everything you see on the monitor to the Multi-View & Sound device via USB 3.0 at resolutions up to 2048x1152. Of course the downside is that the adapter relies a lot onto CPU power (and available system memory).

For this review we used the latest 6.2.37116 drivers by DisplayLink which also updated the adapter itself.

Once the driver installation is over the display properties screen pops up. Since i used the adapter with my SONY TV the maximum supported resolution was 1920x1080.

The software also auto selects the HDMI audio device so you don't need to change anything.

Most settings such as resolution, rotation, display modes and software updates can be accessed from the DisplayLink icon placed at the task bar.
