Cloud providers that offer Mac mini servers use a HDMI dummy plug to emulate the presence of a display, but macOS will usually not treat it as a HiDPI display. This project is great for creating 4k screenshots on such servers.
- touisteur 5y agoEDID dongles have made my remote life work (with HP RGS of all things...) far more nice than any alternative. Goes up to 4K (but low Hz... which is OK for the kind of dev work I do).
- KayL 5y agoWhat app do you used for remote work? I've tried teamviewer / anydesk, but the text always blurry. (I have 4k screen and need to scale up the text size to 2560*1440. Then I found these app only take the 2560 screen to remote)

- InvaderFizz 5y agoI find ConnectwiseScreenconnect works well, but there is a pretty noticeable delay. The best remote experience I have had with macOS is using the built in VNC, but not with a standard client. Using the Remotix client provides a great experience. It's $50. I have also heard that NoMachine for macOS works really well, but I have not tried it.
- KayL 5y agoJust realize how simple is it with the built in VNC. But it just show a DOT for mouse cursor :s And I tried "chrome remote desktop", also good quailty text. But both causing cpu hogging.
- Isthatablackgsd 5y agoI used NoMachine in the past. It works really well, it feel like Windows RDP brother without the MS name. It handles better (less slideshowy and did good with video playing in the remote devices) than VNCs I used in the past.
- touisteur 5y agoHP RGS is quite ok I'm surprised to say... Since we're a HP shop it's all free.
