Hello,

I am a new USB32HDES owner, the instruction manual refers to a USB Video Adapter Icon in the Windows System Tray. I do not have one, is this a utility found on the CD that came with the adapter?

Specifically I am looking for a way to enter a custom aspect ratio, typical Windows display settings don't have that ability.

Thoughts?

Thank you,

Paul.

** It would appear I posted my question in the wrong forum, can someone move to the appropriate one? Ty.

    Hi Archie,

    This is an old reference, and the System Tray icon was removed a while back in an older build of Windows 10, as all it did was act as a shortcut to the Windows Display settings. As a result, this also means that it does not let you set a custom resolution/aspect ratio since it just opens the Windows display settings.

    Typically, a custom resolution is something only doable via a full-blown GPU such as an Nvidia, or AMD card, or an Intel iGP. Each has their own respective software allowing this; Nvidia Control Panel, AMD Adrenalin, Intel Control Panel. Neither of these will work with the USB32HDES as it's not powered by any of those graphics options.
