Does anyone have a recommendation for a KVM switch for 3 machines? Unfortunately the machines only have Displayport and VGA, no HDMI. I find lots of cheap HDMI switches, but only very pricy ones with Displayport. And the monitor in question does no longer have VGA input...
And needing 3 ports makes it even more expensive... :-(
I now have a KVM switch hooked up to both the Mac Mini and my Windows PC so I can use the same keyboard and mouse on both computers.
This obviously frees up more room on my desk since I don't have to have two mice and two keyboards on the computer desk.
Just a push of a button and they switch right over to the one I'm wanting to use.
Help me pls & thank u
Raspberry Pi 4B can’t power SSD so I’m using SD card again. I planned to buy a AC powered USB hub. But, I salvaged a 2022 M2 Macbook Air yesterday. Screen is damaged, and M2 only has 2 Thunderbolt/USB 4 ports. I need to connect to an external display via HDMI b/c $600 for screen replacement is absurd. I could get a docking station.
Do I need a separate USB hub and docking station? A KVM switch? Are there other options?

All the problems I had with the PiKVM and TESmart KVM switch were fixed with this one cheap little device.
After many hours and testing, swapping, resetting, and EDID training, all of my PiKVM and TESmart issues were solved with with a simple, cheap dongle. If you aren’t aware of the struggles I faced when using the PiKVM with a TESmart switch, all of it is detailed in a previous post where I ended up settling on another switch altogether. That’s all changed now with a simple EDID emulator passthrough adapter (affiliate link). However, for the uninformed, I’ll summarize the symptoms I experienced with the PiKVM and TESmart KVM and how I was able to fix these issues.
Does Your Next Monitor Need a KVM Switch?
Man sitting at desk with his hands on a keyboard and on a mouse. The screen in front of him is an ultra-wide screen which shows a 50-5- split view with a desktop on the left side, whilst the right side shows a game being played on the same monitor. I never thought about this before, really for a monitor. I’ve heard about them being used as standalone switches, and still think that may be more flexible. However, if you have one ultra-wide monitor, maybe […]
