Re: Wireless Display

 

Thanks for that. Have tuned the mouse all the way up... better, but still far from usable as a daily driver. Screen resolution is still pretty awful. When compared to my Meerkat 76 over hdmi, it's a sloth. Perhaps not a fair comparison, but that's the kind of functionality needed for a desktop display. Will keep playing around with it.

Thanks for your feedback.

v2 is not yet officialy supported in UT. I was advised to still go with v1.
Although I do remember someone from Canonical saying they were looking at
bringing UT to be v2 compatible. I f I am not mistaken it was Simon Fels.

On my Samsung monitor (21 inch) it is extremely laggy, with very poor
screen resolution

I have used it on my Samsung TV(not sure of the type right now) And I was
quite pleased with the performance and with good resolution. Not blinding
fast yet but not unworkable, although your standards may well be different
frm mine. I also remember Joey Sneddon doing his own review on OMG where he
was quite surprised by the responsiveness. So It appears to be
screen-related for some reason.
How is your performance with your external monitor when connected over
hdmi?

everything is so slow - keyboard and mouse

You are probably aware that you can tune mouse response to your needs in
system settings. I have found that when I dont do that and just use the
default mouse configuration, the mouse is unusably slow on an external
screen

cheers

Hi Mitchell

As a matter of interest, are you using the v1 or v2 Microsoft Display
Adapter?  v2 is *supposed* to have much less latency (I'm thinking of
buying one myself for use with the M10). I have read that a lag can
potentially be reduced by setting the wi-fi router to broadcast on a
different channel as apparently there is a possibility of interference with
the display adapter's wireless connection.

Hi, just got a Microsoft wifi display adapter today, and have been using
it with my Meizu Pro 5. Meh... would love to know what to expect. On my
Samsung monitor (21 inch) it is extremely laggy, with very poor screen
resolution. Is this similar to what other people have been experiencing?
Have been excited to try it in place of my PC, but currently there's no way
- even with desktop apps installed, everything is so slow - keyboard and
mouse. Am running the RC channel.
