Are there any plans to introduce a version that supports higher resolutions, perhaps UHD (3840×2160)?

      Hi @spongymike, thanks for your question!

      Are there any plans to introduce a version that supports higher resolutions, perhaps UHD (3840×2160)?

      We're definitely interested in supporting higher resolutions in future hardware devices! There are a bunch of different factors that go in to supporting higher resolutions, from capture hardware support, available bandwidth, encoding, processing performance, and more. We've got an internal ticket investigating support for higher resolutions, so I've added a note that you're interested.

      Can I ask about your use case for higher resolution support? (e.g., the types of device you plan to control and the tasks that would benefit from the higher resolution)

      Please let me know if you have any questions.

          Hi, I am looking for this, UHD resolution as well. I have a laptop that I want to use from my workstation I am looking for the option to work in full screen on an ultra wide monitor. I only need to use this over a LAN connection where bandwidth isn't a concern.

            Hi @pablocompute, thanks for your input!

            Could you tell me the resolution of your ultra wide? So far, most people requesting higher-resolution options are interested in typical 1440p and 4K displays (i.e., 16:9 aspect ratio). Knowing the resolution of your ultra wide would help us when we look into supporting higher resolutions.

            Please let me know if you have any questions.

                Hi David. Sorry for the delay in my response. My primary use is a UHD one: 3840×2160. If you could support that, I would be grateful. But even if not that, something between the currently-supported HD (1920×1080) and UHD would be better. More pixels == more space to work. :-)

                I also have an ultra-wide running at DQHD, 5120×1440, but supporting that isn't as important to me (but maybe to Pablo?), but anything better than HD is a start. Maybe just QHD (2560×1440) for starters?

                  No problem! Thanks for the feedback. I've made a note of those resolutions and I'll share it with the team so we have a better idea of the requirements when looking into this.

                  Feel free to reach out again if you have any questions or suggestions.

                    I'm running 3840 x 1600

                    Thanks!

                      Thanks, @pablocompute! Like my response to spongeymike, I've made a note of that resolution and fed back to the team.

                      Please reach out again if you have any other questions.
