minus-squareEp1cFac3pa1m@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·1 year agoI bought one back in the day but always had input/video lag. Does yours work smoothly?
minus-squareilli@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12·1 year agoI use one and it’s pretty smooth. Depends on the connection though. Definitely needs wired connection.
