Samsung Dex + Note 8 Resolution

[quilldew]

Hi,

So I set up my Dex with my Note 8 last night, it all runs fine, apart from the resolution.

The monitor I have it attached to has a native res of 1680 x 1050, which the dex doesn't seem to support, as it creating a view with big black bars at the top and bottom.

I know Samsung specified a maximum of 1920 x 1080 resolution, but I assumed it would be able to easily handle LOWER resolutions.

Has anybody found this problem? And did you find a solution?

What mode do you have it in, screen mirroring or DEX...?

Hi,

I have it in DEX mode.
When in Screen mirroring mode it just comes up as a thin window in the middle of the screen.

I've been thinking this may be due to the fact that the monitor i'm using doesn't have a hdmi input so i'm using a hdmi to dvi adapter.
Still lookinf for others that may have had this problem.
