Banner flashes on the second screen through the KVM switch
Last Updated 18 hours ago

Possible Causes

1. Software Rendering Issues

  • Symptom: The CICB-Banner flashes on the second screen.
  • Cause:
    • The software does not explicitly set the rendering target for the second screen. (pending to fix in the feature release)
    • The software is incompatible with the resolution or refresh rate passed through the KVM switch.

2. EDID Transmission from the KVM

  • Symptom: The KVM switch fails to relay or emulate accurate EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) for the second screen.
  • Cause:
    • The software doesn’t receive proper resolution and refresh rate data for rendering on the second display.
    • Delayed or incomplete EDID data can lead to flickering as the software continually reinitializes its display context.

3. Resolution or Refresh Rate Mismatch

  • Symptom: The second screen fails to render software content smoothly.
  • Cause:
    • The resolution or refresh rate the software sets is incompatible with the second screen’s configuration, mainly through the KVM.

4. OS or Graphics Driver Configuration

  • Symptom: When using a KVM switch, the operating system or graphics driver doesn’t fully detect the second screen’s capabilities.
  • Cause:
    • The second screen’s settings are not correctly applied due to signal interference from the KVM.
