Hi, anyone else have issues with the video adapter not working until the third reboot of the display? I have it connected to usb extension and lately every flight my taxi camera will not come online until the third reboot of the 10" touch display.

I have latest firmware.

Definitely shouldn't do that. Where is the adapter connected? Directly to the back of the display? On an extension?

After it's succesfully working, what happens if you turn SkyView off and back on again?

The video adapter is connected to USB extension. I'd say about 80% of the time it does not power the video adapter on first try, second try is about 50%, third restart 100% of times it'll come online. I start up screens with aircraft power, they have the backup batteries as well but I'm starting screens up on aircraft power since my taxi camera is powered by aircraft batteries and have found that it doesn't work at all if I power displays up by backup battery first.

It sounds like you have two displays. Do both behave this way if you swap the video adapter to the other?

Yes I have two 10" dynon skyview touch. I have not tried the display adapter on other screen. I'm just restarting the one screen with video adapter connected in order for it to work, still not working on first boot up most of the time, i'd say 5% of times it will work on first boot.

I'll try it on the other screen and see if it works differently.
