Keyboard availability for second Dell input #3679

Closed kapps7 closed 1 day ago

Hi I have a single Dell monitor setup with two Mac minis.

My Dell only supports one upstream usb connection. It supports DCC controls. Is there any way using BetterDisplay to send the keyboard to the Mac connected into the second Dell minidisplay input ?

The only option I know is to add a kvm switch. Thanks.

No, the only way is to use KVM or some networked software mouse/keyboard sharing alternatives (there are some) to control both computers.
