if i get a 10 meter long hdmi cable i could test it, or i need to move my asus into the living room, my pn50 can use 2 monitors at same time one displayport and one hdmi port, native connectors :=)
and still have usb c ports to be used as monitors ports :=)
such screens can be transportable, hehe

it did for me, but i lost the wiki page for this
so you need to google what is left with above keywords

so you miss firmware ?, or just a asus pn50 ? :)

i have a 49" android tv, cheap :=)

rasberry pi 7" touch screen ?, i have one of them, still planning on create something with it

+1

yes it nice, olso on hollydays :=)
