i’ve tried this with an android tablet and the lag is just unbearable have you noticed this? is it because my tablet ( samsung galaxy tab s6 lite) has usb c 2.0?



You're not going to be able to send any useful screen contents over a usb 2 cable.

The outdated Display Port 1.0 can send up to 10.8Gbit/s, and the even older USB 2.0 could only send 480Mbit/s.

That'd let a raw 800x600 image per frame come through.

It'd be better just to stream over wifi.


I've only tried it on an iPad Pro, and did not notice any lag.
