It requires a reboot once the battery is completely full.&lt;p&gt;It is reliable in producing an image or not depending on battery status. I have no idea why though and neither does support, they haven&amp;#x27;t fixed it for a year at this point so I doubt they ever will.</text><parent_chain><item><author>_nickwhite</author><text>I&amp;#x27;m over IT for about 40 remote workers. One of the comments in this article rings so true about the pain of using USB-C to DisplayPort:&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;I hate my USB-C monitor ports that work is making me use. Sometimes when I plug the USB-Dock in, it works fine. Other times I get one of the two 1920×1080 monitors attached to turn on. Others, no monitors turn on, and I have to unplug it and plug it back in. Then it usually works.&amp;quot;&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;s SUPER finicky and picky, pretty much across the board. I find this true for the PC&amp;#x2F;Windows- macbook pros seems to work MUCH better, even with triple-2k monitors, but still not perfectly every time.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Explaining 4K 60Hz Video Through USB-C Hub (2019)</title><url>https://www.bigmessowires.com/2019/05/19/explaining-4k-60hz-video-through-usb-c-hub/</url></story>
