Is the GMonitor_ v2.2.0.0 to control the 2 inch display safe? When I tell it to run, Microsoft Defender says don’t do it because it’s from an unknown publisher. I would have to override and “run anyway.” Is it safe to run?
for sure, it’s safe. it’s official application.

Sure, you can delete all pictures in screen.

Will there be more themes in the future? I only like the default one at the moment, but I can see a lot of potential for some nice themes.
The Screen upload tool 2.2 is much better. Well done.
I can now add the GIF files successfully. It would be good to have a page where we can share all out 320 x 240 GIF files.
I have found a good website for making GIFs from various video formats and you can edit the size and make them the correct resolution for the GK104 Pro screen.

In this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIsIn0IWBqw you showed how to fix the disconnect in v 2.2 by updating it to version 3.4
The Problem is that I cannot find that uprated version on the firmware webside and it is not included in the dowload for v2.2
Can anyone send me a download link for that updated driver because my screen does not want to connect to its current driver (I use the G104pro with a v3.0 screen)
v3.0 screen have to connect with the WiFi to use.

Hi ! when i plug my GK104PRO Screen on my laptop, the Screen Tool Interface stay Disconnected… tested with another PC, same same thing, but the screen lights up well and show the Wifi qrcode directly. any help plz ?
You need to scan the qr code to use the screen and upload pics or gifs.
I keep getting “video processing failked” when uploading a video/gif. picture no issue. please help
please make sure your video is small than 15M and 320*240 resolution.
i tried it with 165kb gif of 320*240 and it still showed video processing failed. can i do it via an app instead of scanning qr code for 3.0 screen?
The app doesn’t see the keyboard screen when the screen is connected via a wire. I’ve tried all versions of the app, including V 2.2. Please help me resolve this issue
please check if your screen is v3.0 version, if so, please check the v3.0 screen using guide..
I own a 104 pro. My app doesn’t see the screen, and the app itself doesn’t update according to the guide in your video. I have a version 3.0 screen. I’m connecting the screen via cable. I open your app version 2.2 and then select the update to 3.4 using the DSP_flash_3.4 file. After selecting the file, nothing happens. The screen is still not recognized, and the app doesn’t update. It says “link disconnected.”
