[FEATURE REQUEST] Auto-Adjust Resolution Based on Device

KVM
1

Request: Remember and auto-apply per-device display resolution.

Example:

  • Desktop PC → 2560×1440
  • Laptop → 1900×1200

Can the KVM auto-resize to the saved resolution for each device?

I’m doing this manually right now each time I connect from a different device.

Thank you

No, because we cannot identify the computer via HDMI or USB.

I was thinking you could just set a web cookie that records the last known resolution value and when the user visits the site again, it will read the resolution from the cookie and apply it to the settings?

And just to clarify if I didn’t make sense with the original setup:

My Comet Pro KVM is connected to my work PC and this will does not change.

When I connect from either of these two devices below to access my KVM, I would like the KVM to resize the resolution accordingly.

  1. Desktop PC → 2560×1440
  2. Personal Laptop → 1900×1200

I think this can be done via cookies, but let me know. It’s a convenience feature like how Remote Desktop (RDP) works. It resizes to the appropriate (best fit?) resolution when you connect automatically.

Thanks

This might not work well, especially when the controlled device is a laptop. It's possible that you configure EDID A on the controlled computer for screen mirroring, and then the KVM might automatically switch to EDID B. Your controlled computer might then recognize the KVM as a secondary display.
